GRP Palisade Fencing Case Study – High Security, Low Maintenance

Our GRP palisade fencing was recently supplied to North Wales Engineering for a high security perimeter installation that required strength, reliability and long service life without corrosion or maintenance issues. The project demonstrated how GRP fencing provides a safer, non conductive alternative to steel in environments where electrical isolation and durability are critical.

Engineered from premium fibreglass composite materials, the GRP palisade system delivered the look and rigidity of steel palisade fencing while remaining lightweight and easy to install. It now provides long term protection in a challenging industrial setting while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.

GRP Mesh Fencing Case Study – Secure, Durable and High Visibility

Our GRP mesh fencing was used in multiple high profile installations across the UK to create secure and visually open perimeter solutions. This case study explores how GRP mesh fencing combines safety, ventilation and durability, making it ideal for utilities, transport and data infrastructure projects.

Each system was built from corrosion resistant and non conductive fibreglass materials, ensuring strength and stability even in coastal or chemical environments. The lightweight modular design allowed quick installation with minimal disruption to surrounding operations while maintaining excellent visibility and airflow.

FAQs About GRP Fencing

What is GRP fencing and how does it compare to steel or timber?

GRP fencing, short for glass reinforced plastic fencing, is a composite solution made from fibreglass and resin. It provides a strong, lightweight and corrosion-resistant alternative to traditional materials such as steel and timber. Unlike steel, GRP fencing will not rust or conduct electricity, and unlike timber, it will not rot, splinter or require ongoing painting.

GRP mesh fencing and GRP palisade fencing are both ideal for harsh or safety-critical environments including rail, utility and industrial sites. Each system is designed for long-term performance, offering excellent durability with minimal maintenance.

GRP fencing is also easier to handle and install thanks to its low weight, which reduces labour costs on site. Supplied prefabricated or cut to size, and held in stock for fast delivery, it is a proven choice for modern perimeter protection.

Is GRP fencing non conductive and safe for electrical environments?

Yes, GRP fencing is completely non conductive, making it a safe and reliable choice for electrical installations, substations, and high voltage zones. Unlike metal fencing, fibreglass fencing does not carry electric current and will not interfere with sensitive equipment, making it ideal for energy, rail and telecoms infrastructure.

This property also protects workers and the public by removing electrical risks associated with conductive materials. GRP fencing is often installed in areas where traditional steel systems are not permitted due to safety regulations. In addition to being non conductive, GRP fencing is also non magnetic and corrosion resistant, meaning it performs reliably even in chemical plants or coastal zones.

Every fencing system is tested to ensure it meets strength and safety expectations. With stock available for immediate dispatch and prefabricated supply options, GRP fencing offers both peace of mind and fast turnaround for critical projects.

What is the lifespan of GRP fencing?

GRP fencing is designed for long-term use, with a typical service life of over 50 years in most applications. Thanks to its corrosion-resistant, UV-stable and moisture-proof construction, GRP mesh fencing and GRP palisade fencing retain their strength and appearance even in exposed or aggressive environments.

Unlike timber, which degrades over time, or steel, which can rust and require repainting, GRP fencing does not deteriorate under normal conditions. This long service life also reduces maintenance costs, making GRP a more sustainable and cost-effective option over time. It is ideal for infrastructure and utility projects where fencing needs to perform reliably without ongoing repairs.

All systems are supplied with compliance documentation and available cut to size or prefabricated. With large volumes held in stock and fast UK delivery, GRP fencing is a smart investment for any site requiring durability, safety and long-term value.

What is the difference between GRP mesh fencing and GRP palisade fencing?

GRP mesh fencing and GRP palisade fencing are two types of composite fencing systems designed for different site needs. GRP mesh fencing features an open grid pattern, allowing for clear visibility, airflow and reduced wind loading. It is commonly used around substations, railways and data centres where ventilation and surveillance are important.

GRP palisade fencing, on the other hand, offers a more solid, vertical structure that provides a strong physical barrier for high-security applications such as utility compounds, transport hubs and industrial sites. Both systems are manufactured from non conductive, corrosion-resistant fibreglass and deliver excellent strength with minimal maintenance.

Panels are available in standard heights or custom sizes and can be supplied prefabricated for fast installation. With both options held in stock and ready for dispatch, we help you choose the right GRP fencing solution for your site based on safety, visibility and protection requirements.

Is GRP fencing available from stock and how quickly can it be delivered?

Yes, we hold extensive stocks of GRP fencing, including GRP mesh panels, GRP palisade fencing, posts, fittings and GRP gates. Orders can typically be processed the same day, with next day delivery available across most of the UK. For urgent projects, we offer fast quote turnaround and can dispatch stock items immediately.

Panels can be supplied as standard sizes, cut to size or fully prefabricated to your specification, reducing on-site labour and speeding up installation. Our streamlined supply process means you can rely on us to meet tight deadlines without compromising on quality.

Every GRP fencing system is delivered with installation guidance and compliance documentation, making it easy to specify and fit. Whether for industrial, rail, public or utility use, our stock-backed service ensures you get the right solution on time, every time.

Is GRP fencing suitable for coastal or chemically exposed environments?

Absolutely. GRP fencing is specifically engineered to resist corrosion from salt, moisture, chemicals and UV exposure, making it ideal for use in coastal areas, marine facilities, water treatment plants and chemical processing sites.

Traditional steel fencing can rust rapidly in these conditions, while timber can warp or decay. GRP mesh fencing and GRP palisade fencing are unaffected by these elements, ensuring a consistent appearance and structural strength over time. The fibreglass composition prevents surface degradation, even in aggressive atmospheric conditions, and does not require painting or galvanising.

This performance makes GRP fencing a trusted solution for sites where safety, durability and maintenance-free operation are priorities. All fencing systems are available from stock and can be supplied quickly with options for custom sizes or prefabricated panels to suit your exact site needs.
