Services
GRP Moulding
We produce custom GRP mouldings using hand lay, RTM, and cold moulding techniques. Our solutions cater to construction, defence, and industrial sectors, offering lightweight, durable components resistant to corrosion and extreme temperatures. With over 50 years of expertise, we ensure precision engineering for applications ranging from architectural features to military vehicle parts.
GRP Fabrication
Our GRP fabrication services include manufacturing structures like ladders, handrails, and access platforms. Utilising pultruded profiles and polyester sheeting, we create bespoke solutions for harsh environments. All products meet ISO 9001 standards, combining strength with minimal maintenance for sectors including water treatment and power generation.
GRP Water Treatment Products
We supply GRP components for sewage and clean water systems, including weir plates, scum boards, and reed bed troughs. Designed to WIMES specifications, these products resist corrosion and ensure long-term reliability. Our clients include major UK water authorities, benefiting from over four decades of sector-specific expertise.
GRP Spill Containment
Our GRP spill containment systems, including bunds and sump boxes, prevent environmental contamination. Custom-fabricated to site requirements, these units are chemical-resistant and durable. We also offer on-site fibreglassing for concrete pits, ensuring compliance with safety regulations across industrial and water treatment facilities.
GRP Grating Panels
We manufacture load-bearing GRP grating panels conforming to BSEN1422 and BS5395 standards. These lightweight, non-slip panels are ideal for industrial walkways and drainage systems. Available in multiple resin types, they offer corrosion resistance and a 40-year lifespan, with options for custom finishes and dimensions.
