GRP / FRP Grating for Marine, Offshore and Industrial Flooring
Lightweight, anti-slip and corrosion-resistant fiberglass grating for marine decks, offshore platforms, industrial walkways, drainage covers, stair treads and access flooring.
GRP / FRP Grating for Marine and Industrial Access Flooring
GRP / FRP grating is a lightweight, anti-slip and corrosion-resistant flooring solution made from fiberglass reinforced plastic. It is widely used for marine decks, offshore platforms, dock walkways, industrial platforms, drainage covers, stair treads and access flooring where water drainage, walking safety and corrosion resistance are important.
Compared with steel grating, fiberglass grating is easier to handle, resistant to rust, and suitable for wet, salty, chemical or outdoor environments. The open mesh design allows water, dust and small debris to pass through, helping to keep walkways safer and cleaner.
YT Marine manufactures GRP / FRP grating panels in different mesh sizes, thicknesses, colors and surface finishes. Standard panels, cut-to-size panels, stair treads and trench covers can be made according to project drawings or installation requirements.
GRP / FRP grating can be reviewed together with our marine deck and mooring equipment when buyers need deck flooring, walkways, access panels, anchors, chains or other supporting products for marine projects.
