What is GRP and what are Its Benefits to The Rail Sector?
- GRP stands for Glass Reinforced Polymer which is a composite mix of glass fibres and resin moulded into a final product. GRP is a cost-effective lightweight, durable, and non-conductive alternative to steel, concrete, wood and other materials.
- Utilised to create safe walkways, access platforms and flooring, GRP is longer lasting, prevents slippery surfaces from forming and significantly reduces any chance of accidents from happening related to slips or trips.
- The Lockinex GRP range includes non-slip gratings, sheets, stair covers and modular handrail/guardrail systems.
- Lockinex GRP gratings are made from Isophthalic Polyester Resin, fire resistant to BS EN 13501-1:2018 Class B, S1, D0 and fully compliant with the relevant British Standards for loading requirements. Our GRP gratings come in a variety of different colours, sizes and thicknesses which can suit a variety of different project needs.
- At Lockinex we have extensive experience supplying our GRP and Modular handrail nationwide to numerous rail maintenance depots, embankments and passenger walkways within the Network Rail, Crossrail, and Transport For London sectors.
