Pultruded fiberglass grating is made using premium grade isophthalic polyester, vinyl ester or phenolic resin systems with a synthetic surfacing veil, making it corrosion resistant, lightweight, and durable. Pultruded fiberglass has a grit surface for safety, and a greater strength to weight ration than molded fiberglass grating. A 35% / 65% resin to glass ratio provides greater strength and less corrosion resistance than molded fiberglass. This product is better suited for longer life spans.

Fiberglass Grating is the contemporary and modern alternative to metal grating, it is not only architecturally more attractive; but is also highly resistant to corrosive environments. Fiberglass reinforced plastic grating, commonly referred to as FRP grating is a composite material, which is manufactured by the combination of a matrix of resin and fiberglass. Fiberglass grating is also fire retardant in nature, along with being non-conductive and light weight, making it a popular grating option for industrial structures and various other usages such as; fire escapes, raised floors, platforms, drain covers, protective shields, stair treads, walkways, docks and trench covers. Commonly used for floor grating, FRP is simpler to install than metal grating, due to its light weight. It does not require heavy machinery for the installation.
