FRP Grating Selection Guide: Types, Loads and Applications
Types, load ratings, materials and applications — a practical guide to choosing the right FRP grating.
FRP grating is a molded or pultruded mesh panel made of fiberglass reinforced plastic — the standard solution for anti-slip platforms, walkways and industrial floors in corrosive environments.
Standard Types

| 38 × 38 × 30 | Square | 1220 × 3660 | 14.7 |
| 38 × 38 × 38 | Square | 1000–1525 × 3660–4000 | 19.1 |
| 40 × 40 × 40 | Square | 1007–1247 × 4047 | 19.4 |
| 50 × 50 × 50 | Square | 1220–1525 × 3660–4020 | 21.5 |
Adjustable lengths (2440 / 3050 / 3660 mm) available on request.
Key Properties
- Anti-slip surface for safe walking in wet, oily and chemical environments
- Corrosion resistant — ideal for wastewater treatment plants, chemical plants and coastal facilities
- Non-conductive and flame retardant
- Lightweight — easy to cut, handle and install on site
- Low maintenance with a long service life
Applications
Anti-slip walkway plates, stair treads, platform decks, fencing, trench covers, livestock flooring beams and industrial flooring in power plants, water treatment and marine environments.
Selecting the Right Grating
Choose the mesh and thickness based on load requirements: 38 × 38 × 20 for light pedestrian traffic, up to 50 × 50 × 50 for heavy-duty industrial walkways and vehicle-adjacent platforms. For project-specific loads, send us your span and load data — we will recommend the correct panel.
