Product Introduction
Skywind Composites manufactures Heavy Duty Molded FRP Grating for industrial, marine, and infrastructure projects requiring high load capacity, large spans, and corrosion resistance.
Produced by combining continuous fiberglass reinforcement with high-performance resin matrices, our grating forms an integrated, high-strength grid. It serves as a durable alternative to conventional steel grating for uniform loads, concentrated equipment traffic, and dynamic wheel loads.

FAQ
Q: What is Heavy Duty Molded FRP Grating?
A: It is a fiberglass-reinforced plastic grating manufactured through a molded process, engineered specifically for industrial applications requiring higher load performance than standard pedestrian walkways.
Q: Can Heavy Duty FRP Grating support forklift traffic?
A: Yes. It can be engineered for forklift and vehicle wheel loads, provided the support span, grating depth, and traffic conditions are evaluated through a project-specific review.
Q: How do I select the correct grating depth and mesh size?
A: Selection depends on your clear support span, load type (uniform, concentrated, or wheel load), and allowable deflection limits. Contact our engineering team for technical evaluation.
Q: Is FRP grating suitable for corrosive or outdoor environments?
A: Yes. With the correct resin system selected for your chemical and UV exposure, FRP grating resists rust, saltwater, and harsh industrial chemicals far better than traditional steel.
