Captrad manufactures an extensive range of GRP Grating (also known as Fibreglass Grating), including Moulded GRP Grating and Pultruded GRP Grating. These products provide efficient, durable, and cost-effective solutions for all GRP Flooring, walkways, and decking areas requiring long-term reliability in aggressive, corrosive, or chemically challenging environments.
Manufactured from high-quality glass-reinforced thermoset resins, Captrad's GRP Grating is an ideal replacement for traditional steel and aluminium grating systems, especially in harsh or hazardous environments. Our fibreglass grating panels weigh approximately one-quarter of steel and two-thirds of aluminium, significantly simplifying installation and on-site handling.
Unlike traditional metal grating, our moulded and pultruded GRP grating can be easily cut on-site using simple hand tools, making it suitable for a wide range of installations. Its lightweight nature enables easy transportation and installation by personnel, ensuring compliance with Health & Safety standards and reducing the need for specialised equipment.
In addition to GRP Grating, Captrad also offers an extensive selection of GRP Structural Profiles, specifically designed to complement and support various fabricated structures. Our experienced team provides comprehensive design assistance and custom fabrication services, delivering fully finished GRP solutions tailored to meet your project's exact specifications.
GRP Moulded Grating features load-bearing bars running in both directions, allowing it to maintain structural integrity without continuous side support. This versatility enables easy customisation and fabrication of grating panels, while still retaining their inherent strength. Our open mesh GRP flooring integrates seamlessly with the range of structural profiles we offer—see our Pultrusion section for more details.
Captrad Composites has the capability to supply GRP Grating globally, with distribution from the UK and Europe to the UAE, Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, the Americas, and Australia.

Moulded High Load Capacity (HLC) GRP Grating is yet another product in the arsenal of engineered fibreglass reinforced plastic solutions by Captrad Ltd.
GRP Marina Grating offers excellent slip resistance, especially in wet, oily and icy conditions.
GRP Moulded Grating and fibreglass moulded grating provide efficient and cost-effective solutions for all flooring, walkways and decking areas requiring long term performance.
Where fire, smoke and toxic fumes are critical parameters, a phenolic grating is the material of choice.
GRP Solid top grating is used in loading and storage areas. Other applications include food processing facilities where solid top grating prohibit contamination and controls subsurface odours.
GRP pultruded gratings provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for all flooring, walkways and decking areas requiring long term performance in very aggressive and corrosive environments.
GRP Riser Grating are an excellent choice for every contractor that has to work with service risers. The riser flooring is produced from light weight GRP Grating Panels.
GRP Grating is an excellent choice for Rooftop walkways. They are lightweight compared to metal, offer high strength, excellent non-slip properties in any kind of weather, are UV Stable, can easily be cut out on site.
Captrad has developed specially formulated resins designed specifically for chemically aggressive environments. This advanced formulation ensures our GRP Grating withstands harsh conditions without degradation.
Captrad's GRP Grating systems offer exceptional corrosion resistance combined with superior strength, longevity, and enhanced safety. Available in more than ten custom resin formulations, our GRP products consistently outperform traditional metallic and wooden alternatives, providing years of reliable service even in highly corrosive environments.
Being lightweight and easily fabricated, Captrad GRP products significantly reduce labour and equipment costs, bringing the total installation cost comparable to or lower than steel. When combined with minimal maintenance, enhanced worker safety, and extended lifespan, our GRP grating solutions offer considerably lower lifecycle costs compared to traditional metallic systems.
Captrad's advanced isophthalic polyester resin system offers superior performance against corrosion, exceeding many competitive fibreglass and metallic products. It fully meets stringent requirements in industrial, chemical processing, and water/wastewater treatment applications.
