Fibreglass handrailing
FRP handrails offer long life, low maintenance solutions. Our fiberglass handrails are lightweight and offer high resistance towards corrosion. the installed cost of FRP composite handrails is often lower than that of steel. Being a fiberglass reinforced composite, the handrails are thermally and electrically non conductive, offer excellent UV resistance and are extremely durable in extreme outdoor environments

We produce around 100 FRP product, just advise your needs and require, the most suitable product will be offered at the first time
FRP profiles advantages:
| Features | Description | Benefits | Applications |
| Strong | Unit strength in tension & compression is approx. 20 x that of steel when these properties are combined on the basis of unit density | Optional strength as desired. Exceptionally high impact strength reduces damage potential | Structural process equipment support. Tank supports. Cooling tower ancillaries. Flooring supports. Trusses & joints. |
| Light Weight | Density of pultruded components is about 20% of steel and 60% of aluminium | Higher performance at less weight. Lower shipping, handling & installation costs. Less operational energy demand. | Automotive leaf springs & bumpers. Prefabricated walkways & platforms. Bus components. |
| Corrosion Resistant | Unaffected by exposure to a great variety of corrosive environment & chemicals. | Minimum maintenance costs. Long term safety. Longer life. | Chemical plant hand railings, gratings, walkways & bridges. Cable trays. Pipe supports. |
| Electrical Insulation | Provides strength & rigidity with dielectric properties. | Lesser no. of components. Non-magnetic & safe. Predictable insulation values for wide range of frequencies. | Ladders, Cable trays. Switch gear components. Mounting braces and backboards. |
| Thermal Insulation | Pultruded components have a low thermal conductivity, 1/250 of aluminium & 1/60 of steel. | Reduces installation thickness. Eliminates condensation problems. Reduces energy operation requirements. | Bulk head frames. Walk in refrigerator door jams. Window frames. Insulated roll up panel doors. |
| Consolidation | Many individual components can be combined into a large profile. | Reduced assembly cost. Reduced inventory. Fewer parts improve reliability. | Window latch supports. Roll up door |
| Dimensional Stability | Pultruded components are highly resistant to warping stretch/swelling over a wide range of temperature & stresses. | No permanent deformation under high stress. Close tolerances. | Spring bumpers. Crossing gate arms. Scrubber components. |
| Safety | The pultruded components are very strong & safe to work with. They are microbes and insect proof. | Many gratings suffer from the problem of microbes etc. due to wet or unhygienic working conditions. | This property makes them ideal choice for pharmaceutical & food industries. |
