What Is GRP?
(Glassfibre Reinforced Polymers) are also referred to as 'Fibreglass', 'Composite Plastics' and in the USA, 'FRP'. It is an amazingly versatile material which has great potential across a wide variety of applications.
Read More...Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites were first developed during the 1940's, for military and aerospace applications but considerable advances have been made since then in the use of this material
Its vast range of properties can be confusing to the uninitiated. It is a 'plastic', but it displays few of the disadvantages of conventional 'thermoplastics' in everyday use.
For instance, it will not melt, but will burn in a similar way to wood. However, it can be easily and cost-effectively made fire retardant. It is very strong - seven times the flexural strength of steel - yet very lightweight with the tremendous energy absorption properties which have made it a common material for racing cars and boats. Its finish is achieved in contact with a mould surface and takes on the precise texture of that mould. Anything from the highest showroom gloss to the texture of cast iron, stone, or the finest grained wood.
Our portfolio section highlights some of the ways Diespeker have utilised this versatile product.
