FRP/GRP Gratings
AICPL offers full range of gratings suitable for various
applications and AICPL also custom design the gratings suiting end
requirement of the customer. We are an ISO 9001-2000 company certified by
DNV and have expertise for providing various solutions to corrosion
problems, weight issues etc. AICPL, have their own testing facilities, where
all the raw materials are being tested prior to bulk manufacturing and this
quality checks help AICPL to maintain its quality and deliver excellent
products. Our Engineering Section can design products using Structural
Designing and CAD programming.

Features Of Composite Moulded Gratings
Corrosion Resistance
The ability of composite grating to guard against deterioration from
industrial chemicals and environmental factors makes it a logical and
cost-effective alternative to carbon steel, aluminium, wood or other
convention materials, whether the grating is exposed to continuous
submission, splash, spills fumes or gases, you can be assured that
fiberglass grating will outperform other mediums.
Impact Resistance
The impact resistance of Composite grating allows repeated deflection
without permanent deformation A certain amount of deflection can occur with
loading. Loading/deflection tables are available on request.
Maintenance Free
The use of Composite grating virtually eliminates maintenance costs since
painting is not required and UV inhibitors protect against degradation from
the Sun.
Light Weight
Composite grating weights about one-quarter as much as steel grating two
men can easily handle full panels, without the need for hoists, pulleys or
dollies. If the Composite grating needs to be moved for cleaning,
maintenance or utility access, there is less chance of back injuries. The
light weight design of the grating reduces installation and fabrication
costs, weighing only 12 kilos per sq mtr for 25mm and 18 kilos per sq mtr
for 38mm.
Non-slip
Composite Integral grit top surface provides outstanding anti-slip
protection for personnel-in wet and oily environments. The grit is embedded
in the top surface of each panel prior to curing. This combination of
integral construction, plus depth of the embedded grit, creates a
long-lasting maximum anti-slip top surface.
Fire Resistance
Composite grating is available in various resin systems, two of which meet
the Class 1 flame spread rating of 25 or less in accordance with ASTM E-84
Tunnel Test Method. If a flame spread of 10 or less is required, a custom
phenolic resin system can be supplied.
Non-magnetic
The non-magnetic properties allow the grating to be used in sensitive
installation where the inherent magnetic properties of metallic grating
would prove unsuitable.
Mechanical Strength
Breaking strength under a lateral force is exceptional. The uni-directional
continuous fibre glass reinforcement offers numerous advantages, Including
rigidity, shock resistance and no permanent deformation on after
overloading. These factors provide excellent mechanical strength and a
generous factor of safety. Composite grating is designed for maximum safety
in intensive industrial use.
