FAQs

What makes FRP grating better than traditional steel grating?

We’ve found that our FRP grating offers significant advantages over steel – it’s corrosion-resistant so you won’t deal with rust issues, it’s non-conductive for electrical safety, and it’s much lighter making installation easier. Plus, you’ll save on maintenance costs since our FRP systems don’t require regular painting or coating like steel does.

How long can we expect FRP grating to last in harsh industrial environments?

With over 30 years’ experience in FRP technologies, we’ve designed our grating systems to withstand the toughest conditions across mining, oil & gas, and water treatment facilities. Our corrosion-resistant materials typically last decades longer than traditional options, even in highly corrosive environments where steel would fail within years.

Is FRP grating safe to walk on, especially in wet conditions?

Absolutely – we’ve incorporated anti-slip technology into our FRP grating designs specifically for safety. Whether you’re dealing with wet conditions in wastewater facilities or oily environments in industrial settings, our grating provides reliable traction. It’s why we serve sectors like rail and public infrastructure where safety is paramount.

What's the installation process like compared to steel grating?

Installation is typically much easier since our FRP grating is significantly lighter than steel alternatives. You won’t need heavy lifting equipment in most cases, and since it’s non-conductive, there are fewer electrical safety concerns during installation. We’ll work with you to guarantee proper installation across Perth, Western Australia and beyond through our strong delivery network.

Can FRP grating handle heavy industrial loads?

Yes, our FRP grating is engineered to meet demanding load requirements across various industries. We’ve developed durable, lightweight solutions that don’t compromise on strength – that’s why mining operations, utilities, and heavy industrial facilities trust our systems. We’ll help you select the right specifications for your specific load and span requirements.
