The Composite / FRP Grating is a high-strength, non-corrosive walkway system specially designed and manufactured by Lanye using premium fiberglass reinforcement and thermosetting resin (orthophthalic / isophthalic / vinyl ester). Unlike steel alternatives, FRP Grating offers superior corrosion resistance without requiring protective coatings – ensuring the safety and longevity of industrial platforms, access routes, and outdoor pathways in aggressive environments. This Composite / FRP Grating allows easy access for cleaning, inspection, and maintenance, making it suitable for various industries such as chemical processing, marine facilities, wastewater treatment, power generation, and food processing.
Lanye Composite / FRP Grating is engineered with top-grade E-glass fiber and resin systems, providing excellent strength while being only 1/3 the weight of steel. Its grid design, along with optional grit-top anti-slip surface, offers enhanced protection for personnel and equipment.
The Composite / FRP Grating is ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations, finding applications in chemical plants, offshore platforms, electrolysis facilities, cooling towers, and pedestrian bridges. Lanye offers custom sizes, colors, and resin types of Composite / FRP Grating at competitive factory prices.
The Composite / FRP Grating is a specially designed and manufactured grating system made from fiberglass reinforced plastic. Unlike steel grating, FRP Grating is produced through a molded or pultruded process where continuous glass fibers are impregnated with thermosetting resin and formed into a grid pattern. This Composite / FRP Grating supports personnel foot traffic and equipment access in environments where steel would corrode quickly. The grid structure allows for proper drainage and airflow, preventing water accumulation and keeping the walkway surface dry and slip-resistant. The inherent corrosion resistance of FRP Grating ensures it does not rust or degrade during its service life.
Composite / FRP Grating can be cut with standard carbide-tipped tools to accommodate various configurations like curves, slopes, and irregular shapes, making them suitable for complex industrial layouts. These FRP Grating sections can be mounted on steel or concrete beams using special mounting clips or adhesive systems, making them versatile for whole-facility access needs. They are particularly popular in chemical and marine applications, as the Composite / FRP Grating provides lasting protection against acids, alkalis, salts, and moisture.
The open design of the Composite / FRP Grating allows for natural drainage and ventilation, preventing the accumulation of corrosive media on the surface. Additionally, FRP Grating is electrically non-conductive and does not spark, making it safe for use in explosive or electrical environments.
Lanye offers a range of Composite / FRP Grating in both molded and pultruded styles, with bearing bar heights from 25 to 50 mm, grid patterns typically of 38×38 mm or 50×50 mm, and standard panel sizes of 1220×3660 mm or 1000×4000 mm. Lanye provides custom design and fabrication services to meet specific project requirements for any Composite / FRP Grating.

Composite / FRP Grating provides advantages such as superior corrosion resistance (without coatings), customization options, electrical non-conductivity, aesthetic appeal with color options, good drainage and air circulation, optional grit-top anti-slip surfaces, quick and flexible installation, lightweight construction (1/3 of steel weight), ease of field modification, OEM/ODM availability, and competitive lifecycle pricing. These features make Composite / FRP Grating a reliable and efficient choice for industrial access and platform applications in corrosive environments.
Composite / FRP Grating can be customized to meet specific project requirements. They are available in different mesh sizes, panel thicknesses, bearing bar heights, and shapes. Additionally, FRP Grating can be supplied in custom colors (yellow, green, gray, blue, red) for safety coding or aesthetic purposes, allowing for a tailored solution that fits your exact industrial access needs.
The use of fiberglass reinforced plastic gives Composite / FRP Grating inherent corrosion resistance. Unlike steel grating that requires hot-dip galvanizing or paint, FRP Grating does not rust or degrade when exposed to acids, alkalis, salts, moisture, or chemicals. This makes Composite / FRP Grating suitable for harsh environments including chemical plants, marine facilities, and wastewater treatment plants – with no need for protective coatings or ongoing maintenance.
Composite / FRP Grating is electrically non-conductive and does not produce sparks upon impact. This makes FRP Grating ideal for applications requiring electrical isolation, such as power substations, electrolysis facilities, and explosive environments where sparking from metal grating would be a safety hazard.
Composite / FRP Grating weighs approximately 1/3 of steel while providing comparable strength. This lightweight property makes FRP Grating easy to handle, transport, and install – reducing labor costs and allowing for lighter supporting structures.
Composite / FRP Grating can be equipped with grit-top (silica sand embedded), concave, or mensa anti-slip surfaces for maximum safety in wet or oily conditions. Optional safety toeboards and FRP mounting clips are also available for FRP Grating. These accessories provide additional protection for personnel working on the Composite / FRP Grating.
The Composite / FRP Grating can be quickly deployed using FRP mounting clips, adhesive systems, or mechanical fasteners. Field cutting of FRP Grating is possible using standard carbide-tipped circular saws, allowing for efficient layout, changes, and expansions. This saves time and effort during installation and future maintenance of any Composite / FRP Grating system.
Because Composite / FRP Grating does not rust, rot, or corrode, it requires virtually no maintenance over its service life. No painting, coating touch-up, or replacement due to corrosion is needed. This makes FRP Grating highly cost-effective over the full lifecycle compared to steel alternatives in corrosive environments.
For applications requiring fire resistance, Lanye offers Composite / FRP Grating made with phenolic resin. Phenolic FRP Grating has low smoke emission and flame spread characteristics, meeting stringent fire safety standards for offshore platforms, tunnels, and chemical plants.
As a manufacturer, Lanye offers comprehensive OEM/ODM services for Composite / FRP Grating. We can produce customized FRP Grating solutions based on specific project drawings, resin requirements, color specifications, or site measurements, ensuring a tailored and precise fit for any application.
While the initial cost of Composite / FRP Grating may be higher than carbon steel, the absence of corrosion-related maintenance, no need for coatings, and longer service life make FRP Grating significantly more cost-effective over the full project lifecycle – especially in aggressive environments.
The Composite / FRP Grating is the ideal industrial access solution for environments where steel grating would corrode quickly. It is widely used in chemical processing, marine platforms, wastewater treatment, power generation, electrolysis facilities, cooling towers, food processing, and pedestrian bridges. Composite / FRP Grating provides a safe, non-conductive, corrosion-resistant walking surface where long-term durability and minimal maintenance are required.
A: Molded FRP Grating is manufactured in a one-piece mold, creating a mesh-type pattern with bi-directional strength – ideal for general walkway applications. Pultruded FRP Grating is made by pulling continuous fiber and resin through a die, creating rectangular bars that are then assembled – offering higher load capacity in one direction. Lanye offers both types depending on your application requirements.
A: Composite / FRP Grating provides significantly better corrosion resistance than even hot-dip galvanized steel. While galvanized steel will eventually rust when exposed to acids, alkalis, or salt spray, FRP Grating is inherently corrosion-resistant and does not require any protective coating. For chemical plants, marine environments, and wastewater facilities, FRP Grating is the preferred choice.
