What is GRP

GRP (glass reinforced plastic), also known as fibreglass is a composite material made primarily of glass fibres and a thermosetting resin. The two main products supplied by GRP Australia are pultruded GRP and moulded grating. Pultruded GRP is a manufactured fiberglass product made in a continuous moulding process while FRP Moulded Grating is a fiberglass decking product made in a batch process.  

The exceptional high strength to weight ratio and versatility of GRP allows it to be used in various applications, while its customizability makes it ideal for meeting specific industry needs.

What is the Difference Between GRP and FRP Material?

FRP (fibre reinforced plastic) is a composite material or polymer made of resin (plastic) reinforced by fibres. The fibre of the composite could be glass, carbon, or aramid while the plastics could be composed of polyester, vinyl ester or epoxy. FRP is a general term that can be used interchangeably with GRP, as GRP is a type of FRP with the fibre component being glass.
