Fibreglass Grating Characteristics

SLIP RESISTANT

Grating is available with a choice of concave or gritted surface finish. Both offer excellent slip resistant properties and the resilience of both types means personnel will find it more comfortable to stand thus reducing fatigue.


IMPACT RESISTANT

Fibreglass grating is very flexible and may be repeatedly deflected without causing permanent deformation. Once the load is removed, FibreGrid will return to its original shape, unlike metallic grating, which will remain deformed and require replacement. High energy absorption and flexibility of FibreGrid makes it impact resistant.


FIRE RESISTANT

FibreGrid's fibreglass grating has been tested in accordance with BS 476: Part 7 and met the performance requirements of Class 1. A detailed copy of the report and test results are available on request.


CORROSION RESISTANT

The grating is resistant to a wide range of chemicals and is perfectly suited for use even in the harshest of environments. To view the chemical resistance guides

LIGHTWEIGHT

At only 12kgs per square metre (25mm high) and 18kgs per square metre (38mm high), fibreglass grating is very easy to install and requires no heavy lifting equipment.


NON-MAGNETIC

Non-magnetic properties allows the grating to be used in sensitive installations where the inherent magnetic properties of metallic grating would prove to be dangerous.

Non-Sparking

Grating is ideally suited for those installations where hydrogen or other combustible gases may be present and which may explode or cause a fire from sparks produced by accidental dropping of tools onto the grating.
