01 Animal enclosures/Fences
FRP grating is a great option for animal enclosures, such as pig pens, cattle yards,
and poultry sheds. The material is resistant to chemicals, weathering, impact and
corrosion, making it ideal for use in environments with animal waste and other
harsh substances. The grating also has a non-slip surface, which improves the
safety of the animals and their handlers.
02 Trench Drain
Slipping in wet areas, such as drains, is a major safety issue throughout the year.
When faced with which drain grating to choose, why do customers choose
FRP grating over traditional steel? FRP drain grating not only brings together
the qualities of metal (such as mechanical strength and durability) but also
has excellent chemical strength and unparalleled lightness.
03 Walkways and bridges
FRP grating is a popular choice for walkways and bridges in agricultural settings.
Its non-slip surface makes it safer for workers to walk on, and its lightweight
nature allows for easy installation and maintenance. FRP grating is also
resistant to UV rays and other environmental factors, making it a long-lasting
solution for outdoor applications.
04 Shearing Shed Flooring
FRP grating is a great option for animal enclosures, such as pig pens,
cattle yards, and poultry sheds. The material is resistant to chemicals,
weathering, impact and corrosion, making it ideal for use in environments
with animal waste and other harsh substances. The grating also has
a non-slip surface, which improves the safety of the animals and their handlers.
05 Chemical storage
Finally, FRP grating is commonly used for chemical storage
areas in the agricultural industry. Its resistance to chemicals
and corrosion makes it an ideal option for storing fertilizers,
pesticides, and other chemicals. The grating can also be used
as a barrier between the chemicals and the soil, preventing
contamination and environmental damage.
06 Anti-Slip Ramp or Flat Sheet
Replace timber flooring inside a sheep shed or calf
pen with Mini Mesh Grating for a durable, long-lasting
solution that does not soak up liquids and is easy
to wash down. Or install Flat Sheet on ramps for an
improved, non-slip walkway surface.
