“Increasing Adoption of Molded Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Grating in Wastewater and Chemical Processing Plants”
- Molded fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating is increasingly adopted in sectors such as wastewater treatment and chemical processing due to its resistance to harsh environments
- For instance, a wastewater facility in Houston, Texas, replaced steel grating with fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) to combat corrosion from constant chemical exposure
- The grating resists acids, alkalis, and moisture, making it ideal for applications where traditional materials deteriorate quickly
- Its non-conductive and anti-slip properties align with OSHA and other safety regulations, making workplaces safer
- Molded fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating requires minimal maintenance, offering lower lifecycle costs compared to metal or wood alternatives
- Multiple installations in California, Texas, and Louisiana underscore a growing preference for fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) in industrial infrastructure upgrades
