Description
Industrial FRP Molded & Pultruded Gratings Manufacturer in Gujarat
Nikunj Fibre Glass is a leading manufacturer and supplier of FRP Gratings (Fiberglass Floor Gratings, Walkway Platforms & Trench Covers) based in Vapi, Gujarat. Engineered specifically for harsh chemical plants, offshore platforms, wastewater treatment facilities, and electroplating shops, our FRP gratings provide an indestructible, lightweight, and slip-resistant alternative to steel and galvanized gratings.
Manufactured using high-load bi-directional continuous fiberglass rovings encapsulated in premium thermosetting polyester or vinyl ester resins, our gratings conform to BS 4592, ASTM E84, and OSHA slip-resistance standards.
Key Features & Advantages
- Permanent Corrosion Resistance: Withstands continuous exposure to hot acid fumes, chemical washdowns, seawater, and caustic chemicals.
- Superior Bi-Directional Strength: Square mesh molded grating distributes concentrated loads equally in both directions for maximum safety.
- Anti-Slip Grit Surface: Embedded quartz grit or concave meniscus surface provides exceptional slip resistance even when coated in wet oils and chemicals.
- Electrically Non-Conductive & Non-Sparking: Guarantees electrical worker safety around substations and eliminates sparks in explosive zones.
- Effortless On-Site Fabrication: Lightweight panels can be cut to fit circular pipe penetrations using handheld circular saws without hot-work permits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What load capacity do 38 mm FRP gratings support?
A standard 38 mm thick grating supported at a 900 mm span easily supports uniform loads exceeding 1,200 kg/m² with minimal deflection, fully complying with OSHA industrial walkway guidelines.
Q2: How are FRP gratings fastened down?
We supply specialized 316 stainless steel M-clips, C-clips, and G-clamps that clamp the grating directly onto structural steel or FRP beam flanges without drilling.
