FAQs About Fibreglass Grating
Fibreglass grating is available in various types, each designed for specific applications. Unlike traditional materials like steel or wood, fibreglass grating is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and low maintenance.
Types of Fibreglass Grating:
- Open Mesh Fibreglass Grating – Ideal for areas needing maximum drainage and ventilation, such as marine walkways, offshore platforms, and wastewater plants. The open grid design prevents water accumulation, making it perfect for wet conditions.
- Mini Mesh Fibreglass Grating – Features smaller apertures, preventing objects from falling through. Suitable for pedestrian areas, public walkways, and transport hubs, ensuring safety and comfort underfoot.
- Solid Top Fibreglass Grating – Offers full surface coverage with a sealed, slip-resistant surface, preventing debris and liquids from passing through. Commonly used in industrial plants, food processing facilities, and maintenance walkways.
- Moulded vs Pultruded Fibreglass Grating –
Moulded grating provides bi-directional strength and is preferred for applications requiring impact resistance and flexibility. Pultruded grating, made using continuous fibreglass strands, is stronger in one direction and better suited for high-load applications.
For detailed specifications and help selecting the right fibreglass grating, refer to BS 4592-6:2008 Industrial Flooring and Walkways Standards.
Fibreglass grating must comply with strict industry standards to ensure safety, durability, and structural integrity. Below are some key regulations:
- Fire Retardancy Standards
Our fibreglass grating meets ASTM E84 standard for fire resistance, ensuring low flame spread and high-temperature stability - Industrial Flooring & Walkways Standards (BS 4592-6:2008)
BS 4592 sets the standard for industrial flooring, walkways, and stair treads in the UK and Europe. It specifies requirements for load-bearing capacity, slip resistance, and material durability. - Permanent Means of Access to Industrial Equipment(BS EN ISO 14122-3:2016)
This European standard regulates safe access to industrial equipment. Fibreglass grating is widely used in compliance with these requirements, especially in rail, marine, and construction industries (View BS EN ISO 14122). - Anti-Slip Standards & Load Ratings Slip resistance is a key feature of fibreglass grating. Our grating exceeds UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE) slip resistance requirements, ensuring worker safety in high-risk areas.

- Weight & Strength Comparison to Steel
Property Fibreglass Grating Steel Grating Weight (kg/m²) 12-15 kg 40-50 kg Tensile Strength (MPa) 450-600 MPa 400-500 MPa Flexural Strength (MPa) 150-250 MPa 100-150 MPa Corrosion Resistance Excellent – no rust or degradation Prone to rust, requires coating Thermal Conductivity Low – reduces heat transfer High, retains heat - Chemical & Corrosion Resistance
Fibreglass grating is highly resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents, making it ideal for chemical plants, offshore facilities, and wastewater treatment plants. - Load-Bearing Capacity
Fibreglass grating can support high static and dynamic loads while maintaining structural integrity. It complies with BS 4592 load-bearing guidelines, ensuring suitability for heavy-duty applications. - Electrical & Thermal Insulation
Unlike steel, fibreglass is non-conductive, making it safe for electrical installations, power plants, and railway infrastructure.

- Is Fibreglass Grating Recyclable?
Yes! Our d² fibreglass grating is 100% recyclable, making it one of the most sustainable alternatives to steel or concrete. - How Does Recycling Fibreglass Work?
Traditional fibreglass was difficult to recycle, but new technologies allow us to reprocess fibreglass into raw materials for new composite products. Our recycling process significantly reduces landfill waste and carbon emissions. - What Are the Environmental Benefits of Fibreglass Grating?
- Lower carbon footprint – Our d² fibreglass grating has already saved nearly 5 million kg of CO₂.
- No toxic coatings or paints – Unlike steel, fibreglass does not require galvanising or chemical coatings.
- Long lifespan – Fibreglass lasts over 50 years, reducing replacement frequency.
- How Does Fibreglass Compare to Steel in Sustainability?
Feature Fibreglass Grating Steel Grating Carbon Footprint Low– Fully recyclable High – Energy-intensive production Maintenance Minimal – No rust or repainting Frequent upkeep needed Lifespan 50+ years with no degradation Shorter lifespan due to corrosion End-of-Life Recycling 100% recyclable – Processed into new materials Recyclable but energy-intensive processing Thermal Conductivity Low – reduces heat transfer High, retains heat
Choosing fibreglass over steel results in lower environmental impact, lower maintenance costs, and better long-term performance.
