Why it works

Certified strength for grating and structural openings

EN 13706 certified

Meets the industry standard for pultruded GRP profiles, giving a known strength and quality benchmark.

Handles wet and chemical areas

Chemical, oil and corrosion resistant, so it performs in washdown, wet and chemically aggressive environments.

Cut to your length

Supplied cut to length in-house to a tolerance of +/-3mm, so it fits first time.

Non-conductive

Safe to use near electrical and high-voltage electrical equipment, unlike steel channel.

Built to last outdoors

UV stable and rated from -50°C to +110°C, so it holds up in exposed, all-weather locations.
Overview

GRP U Profile for GRP Grating - Overview

The GRP U Profile is a pultruded fibreglass channel used to reinforce large openings and voids in GRP grating installations. Certified to EN 13706, it adds structural support without the weight or corrosion risk of steel, and is built to perform in wet, chemical and outdoor environments.

Frequently asked questions

What is the GRP U Profile used for?

It is a reinforcing channel used to strengthen large openings and voids in GRP grating installations, giving extra structural support at edges and cut-outs.

Can it be cut to a specific length?

Yes. We cut profiles to your required length in-house, to a tolerance of +/-3mm, so you get an exact fit rather than a standard 3m length.

Is it suitable for wet or chemically aggressive areas?

Yes. The GRP construction is chemical, oil and corrosion resistant, and rated for wet and oily areas as well as dry indoor and outdoor use.

Can I use it near electrical equipment?

Yes. The profile is non-conductive, including around high-voltage electrical equipment, which makes it a safer alternative to a steel channel in these settings.

What sizes are available?

Two profile sizes: 101.6mm x 50.8mm x 6.35mm and 152.4mm x 42.8mm x 9.5mm, both supplied in 3m lengths before any cutting.

How is it fixed in place?

Fixing clips, bolts and clamps are available separately to suit your installation, rather than being supplied as standard with the profile.

Does it meet a recognised standard?

Yes. It is certified to EN 13706, the specification for pultruded GRP profiles, alongside a BS 476 Part 7 flammability rating.
