Industrial – FRP Grating Australia & Pultruded Profile Solutions
Craft Fibreglass supplies FRP grating Australia wide for industrial, infrastructure and commercial projects. Rather than manufacturing standard stock products, we source and supply industrial fibreglass grating and pultruded profiles on a project basis, ensuring each solution meets the technical requirements of the site.
Our FRP grating systems are designed for strength, safety and long-term performance in harsh environments. By working with trusted global manufacturers, we are able to deliver high-quality composite grating solutions while offering flexibility in colour, surface grit and specifications.
This project-based approach allows us to customise grating systems to suit engineering requirements, helping Australian industries replace traditional steel grating with lightweight, corrosion-resistant composite alternatives that provide long service life and improved safety.
FRP Grating Australia – Built for Industrial Environments
Industrial environments place constant stress on flooring, platforms and access structures. Exposure to moisture, chemicals, heavy loads and ongoing foot traffic can quickly degrade steel and timber systems.
FRP grating offers a reliable alternative, providing excellent corrosion resistance and structural stability without the weight or maintenance demands of metal grating.
Because we supply FRP grating on a project basis, we can provide products tailored to specific site conditions including panel sizes, load ratings and surface finishes.
Our FRP grating Australia solutions are suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, delivering consistent performance in demanding industrial conditions.
What We Supply
Craft Fibreglass supplies a wide range of industrial fibreglass grating and pultruded structural profiles, sourced specifically to meet project requirements.
We supply:
• FRP moulded grating panels
• Pultruded fibreglass grating systems
• Structural pultruded profiles (I-beams, channels, angles and handrails)
• Walkways, platforms and access flooring
• Stair treads and safety grating
• Custom cut panels and profiles
All products are supplied to specification, ensuring compatibility with existing structures and site requirements.
Custom Colour & Grit Options
One of the key advantages of our project-based supply model is the ability to customise FRP grating for different environments.
We can supply grating in any RAL colour, allowing projects to meet safety standards, visibility requirements or design preferences.
Surface options include:
- Industrial gritfor heavy-duty environments with high slip resistance
- Barefoot grit suitable for recreational or poolside areas
- Child-safe grit designed for locations where safety and comfort are important
This flexibility allows engineers, contractors and asset managers to choose grating systems that meet both operational and safety requirements.
Why Choose FRP Grating Over Steel
Steel grating has been widely used in industrial environments for many years, but it often struggles to perform over the long term in harsh Australian conditions. Constant exposure to moisture, chemicals, salt air and heavy use can cause steel grating to corrode, weaken and become unsafe, leading to increased maintenance and higher operating costs.
FRP grating offers a modern alternative that is specifically engineered for demanding industrial environments. Made from fibreglass reinforced plastic, FRP grating does not rust or corrode, even in wet, chemical or coastal conditions. This makes it a reliable choice for facilities where traditional steel grating deteriorates quickly.
Some of the key performance advantages of FRP grating include:
- Excellent corrosion resistance, even in chemical and high-humidity environments
- Lightweight construction, making handling and installation easier
- Slip-resistant surfaces that improve safety in wet or oily areas
- Non-conductive material suitable for electrical environments
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
In addition to durability, FRP grating also offers significant safety benefits. Unlike steel, it does not produce sharp edges, rust flakes or surface degradation over time. FRP is also electrically non-conductive, which reduces risk in areas near electrical equipment or exposed wiring.
From a maintenance perspective, FRP grating delivers strong long-term value. Steel grating often requires regular inspections, repainting and corrosion treatment. FRP grating maintains its strength and surface performance with minimal upkeep, reducing downtime and ongoing maintenance costs.
Additional advantages that make FRP grating a preferred option include:
- Long service life without the need for protective coatings
- Consistent performance in outdoor and indoor installations
- Lower lifecycle costs compared to steel alternatives
For industrial facilities focused on safety, durability and long-term cost control, FRP grating provides a practical and reliable alternative to traditional steel systems.
Pultruded Profiles for Structural Support
In addition to grating, Craft Fibreglass manufactures pultruded fibreglass profiles used for structural framing and support systems.
Pultruded profiles are manufactured using a continuous process that produces consistent, high-strength composite sections. These profiles are commonly used alongside FRP grating to create complete access systems.
We supply pultruded profiles including:
- I-beams and H-beams
- Channels and angles
- Square and rectangular sections
- Handrail systems and posts
- Structural framing components
These profiles offer excellent load-bearing capacity while remaining lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
Custom Manufacturing to Project Requirements
Every industrial site is different. Load requirements, environmental exposure and layout constraints vary from project to project. That’s why we focus on custom manufacturing, rather than off-the-shelf products.
We work with engineers, contractors and project managers to manufacture FRP grating and profiles that suit:
- Required panel sizes and thickness
- Load ratings and span requirement
- Slip resistance levels
- Colour coding and visibility needs
- Integration with existing structures
This approach ensures each solution performs as intended and complies with site-specific needs.
Safety and Slip Resistance
Workplace safety is a major consideration in industrial environments. FRP grating provides excellent slip resistance, even in wet or oily conditions.
Our industrial fibreglass grating is available with textured or grit surfaces designed to reduce slip risk on walkways, stairs and platforms.
- Additional safety benefits include:
- No sharp edges or rust flaking
- Electrical insulation properties
- Improved visibility through colour contrast
- Consistent surface performance over time
These features support safer working environments across industrial facilities
Durability in Harsh Conditions
Industrial sites often expose materials to chemicals, moisture, UV radiation and temperature fluctuations. FRP grating is engineered to withstand these conditions without deterioration.
Unlike steel, fibreglass does not rust or corrode. Unlike timber, it does not rot or absorb moisture. This makes FRP grating particularly suitable for:
- Chemical plants
- Coastal facilities
- Wash-down areas
- High-humidity environments
- Outdoor installations
By maintaining structural integrity over time, FRP grating reduces unplanned maintenance and downtime.
Ease of Installation and Handling
FRP grating panels and pultruded profiles are significantly lighter than steel alternatives. This makes transportation, handling and installation faster and safer.
Lightweight construction allows:
- Reduced lifting equipment requirements
- Faster installation times
- Easier retrofitting into existing facilities
- Lower labour costs
This is particularly valuable for remote or elevated installations where access is limited.
