Fibergrate Overview
WHY CHOOSE FIBERGLASS REINFORCED PLASTIC (FRP) INSTEAD OF STEEL?
Contractors and architects prefer FRP over metal, wood and concrete for many industrial and construction applications. The benefits of building with FRP:
- FRP is 70% lighter than steel with an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.
- FRP is corrosion resistant and requires less maintenance than traditional metal, wood and concrete products.
- FRP is non-conductive and slip resistant, providing a safer alternative to steel and concrete, and a much safer alternative than wood which splinters and grows slippery moss/mildew.
- FRP has similar installed cost to metal structures, but a much better ROI over time, as it lasts decades and will not rust, Even vs. wood, over time the costs are similar but the maintenance is much lower as it does not rot.
- We manufacture and fabricate FRP in a range of colors and shapes, giving architects options for creating compelling structures.
