FRP Handrails
Enquire About Our FRP Handrails
Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Safety Solutions
FRP handrails (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic handrails) are engineered for industrial safety in corrosive and high-risk environments. Unlike steel or wood, FRP handrails will not rust, rot, or require constant maintenance. Lightweight yet strong, they are trusted in wastewater treatment plants, chemical processing facilities, marine platforms, mining operations, and industrial infrastructure across South Africa.
Why Choose FRP Handrails?
FRP handrails offer a long-lasting safety solution for industrial access structures. Key benefits include:
- Corrosion & Chemical Resistance – Withstands acids, salts, and industrial pollutants.
- Non-Conductive – Safer than steel around electrical installations.
- Fire-Retardant – ISOFR resin tested to ASTM E-84 (flame spread ≤25).
- Lightweight – Easier handling, reduced installation costs.
- UV Protection – Extended outdoor lifespan with polyurethane UV coating.
- Minimal Maintenance – No painting, galvanizing, or anti-rust treatments required.
Applications of FRP Handrails
FRP handrails are widely used in industries that demand safety, corrosion resistance, and compliance:
- Wastewater Treatment Plants – withstands constant moisture and chemical exposure.
- Chemical & Petrochemical Facilities – resists corrosive atmospheres.
- Mining & Industrial Plants – non-conductive and durable under heavy use.
- Marine & Offshore Platforms – unaffected by saltwater and UV exposure.
- General Infrastructure & Construction – lightweight, modular, and easy to install.
Resin System
A high grade polyester resin system, which is designed for medium industrial and chemical processing applications. ASTM-84 flame spread rating of 25 or less.
