Wood Plastic Composites (WPC), Pontoon Decking, Composite Timber

Wood Plastic Composites

Dura Deck is a low maintenance wood plastic composite construction material alternative to wood. Our wood plastic composite (WPC) material is the result of several years development. A unique composite formula has been developed to provide the best of both worlds, a long lasting material that handles heat and weathering, as well as being beautiful in appearance.

Pontoon Decking & Composite Timber

Dura Deck is used extensively for all types of commercial, domestic, pontoon decking, boardwalks and terracing. Dura Deck composite timber is a low maintenance alternative to wooden timber, and is manufactured from recycled plastics and reclaimed hardwood timbers. Traditional woodworking tools and machinery can be used with Dura Deck and it is easily screwed, nailed, glued and sawn in the same way as natural timber.

Dura Tread Anti-Slip Fibreglass Grating

We supply Dura Tread fibreglass grating non slip flooring constructed from fibreglass, as an ideal and cost effective alternative to traditional grating materials like wood, mild steel and stainless steel. Dura Tread fibreglass grating is exceptionally slip resistant and the gritted and concave anti-slip grating offers excellent traction in wet and icy conditions.

Fibreglass Gratings

Dura Tread fibreglass grating is lightweight and chemical resistant which makes it ideal for the chemical, port and harbour industries. It is suitable for various applications as it weighs approximately one third as much as steel grating and has the added benefit of being corrosion resistant. The chemical resistant mesh of Dura Tread fibreglass gratings can be used for walkways in corrosive environments as well as offering other advantages:

Pontoon Decking

Fibreglass pontoon decking has a proven gritted, maximum anti-slip surface which has one of the highest degrees of slip-resistance ever measured for a walking surface, especially in wet, oily and icy conditions. The integral gritted non-slip surface of the pontoon deck provides long-lasting protection and is the ideal replacement for traditional deck materials used in marina developments and constructions.

Fibreglass Marina Deck can enhance the asset value of marina properties, and the incredible anti-slip qualities and appearance of the pontoon decking can help to attract new berth holders and possibly reduces insurance premiums.

Dura Slab Fibreglass Duct Covers, Gully Covers, Structural Flooring & Trench Covers

Duct Covers

Dura Slab is ideal for new constructions and replacements for duct covers but is also well suited for refurbishment applications to replace old, heavy & cumbersome traditional flooring materials and covers. The characteristics of Dura Slab make it more favourable for duct covers rather than using steel, timber or concrete systems due to its lower weight, anti-slip surface, ease of installation and absence of maintenance.

Gully Covers & Trench Covers

Dura Slab ideal for gully covers & trench covers is BS EN 124 approved. This European standard applies to gully covers, trench covers and manhole tops for vehicular and pedestrian areas. In order to reach this approval a Dura Slab panel of 74mm thickness and 1280mm span was subjected to a load equivalent to two thirds of the Class B test load, 83.3kN, and then reduced to zero.

Structural Flooring

Dura Slab is a fibreglass structural flooring system manufactured using a unique construction technique that provides an incredible strength to weight ratio. Two high strength fibreglass solid plates are bonded to each side of a fibreglass mesh core material producing a composite structural flooring structure that is stiff, strong, light-weight, non-corrosive with an anti-slip walking surface.

Applications: Trench Covers Industrial Flooring Work Platforms Gully Covers Service Duct Covers Bridge Decks Tank Covers Chemical Plant Flooring Balcony Flooring

Benefits: Anti-slip surface Light Weight High Strength Fast Installation Anti Corrosive Fire Resistant Impact Resistant Zero Maintenance

Pultruded Fibreglass Profiles, Fibreglass Pultrusions & GRP Profiles

Pultruded Fibreglass Profiles

We are one of the leading companies in composite technology in Europe, specialising in the production of pultruded fibreglass profiles.

Fibreglass Pultrusions & GRP Profiles

Fibreglass pultrusion composite sections are manufactured by combining various resins with pure fibre reinforcement. GRP profiles are formed and cured in a continuous process creating a product of extraordinary strength and resilience. The resultant GRP profile offers a combination of benefits and mechanical properties exceeding those of metal.

Benefits of GRP Profiles

The GRP profiles provide exceptional strength, toughness and consistency. GRP profiles offer a number of advantages over traditional materials such as steel, aluminium and timber and their use is increasing across a wide range of applications and industries.

The almost infinite variety of possible GRP profiles allows a high degree of design freedom. Tailored properties such as strength, stiffness, weight and colour can be engineered by product design at the early stages of development.

Dura Profile is ideally suited for:

	Trench Covers		Bridge Decks
	Industrial Flooring		Tank Covers
	Work Platforms		Chemical Plant Flooring
	Gully Covers		Balcony Flooring
	Service Duct Covers

Anti Fatigue Matting, Safety Matting, Rubber Matting, Floor Matting

Anti Fatigue Matting

Fibreglass Grating Ltd are suppliers of low cost interlocking rubber floor tiles with anti-fatigue benefits which is a simple yet effective solution to the problems. The anti fatigue matting tiles have the following features. Made from hard wearing natural rubber, slip resistant, tile size 0.9m x 0.9m and conforms to slip resistant test EN13552 category RIO . Fibreglass Grating Ltd also offers a free advisory service by our technical experts and can provide working samples for testing purposes.

It is very important that the anti fatigue matting is carefully selected to suit the environment. For wet or oily conditions, mats with open holes are best suited so as to provide a channel for spilt liquids that would otherwise pose a slip hazard. For higher temperature environments then our hard wearing anti fatigue matting such as our Solid Top tiles would be the answer. Solid mat surfaces are more suitable for dry locations. Where frequent turning is necessary, it is wise to opt for a mat with a heavy duty surface to maximise durability.

Safety Matting

Fibreglass Grating has introduced a new range of safety matting which promises to significantly reduce cases of slips and trips. For personnel who spend the majority of their workday on their feet, the rubber safety matting is designed to alleviate fatigue and discomfort in the lower legs and feet and has proved highly effective in reducing the workplace-caused back pain which accounts for 150 million lost working days every year.

Safety matting also absorbs moisture and water and is impervious to most acids, oils and chemicals. The hard wearing surface can withstand high temperatures and spillage of hot materials. Highly durable it is easy to clean and provides a simple, long term solution to workplace safety and comfort. The interlocking mats are supplied in solid or open grid form to fit any sized area. Yellow borders are available to make edges more easily visible and the sloping edges create easy movement for trollys and other wheeled access.

Rubber Matting

Our rubber matting is ideal for garages, workshops, utility rooms, gyms, gardens and play areas, caravan awnings and many more uses! It is also ideal for use for safety and child protection around paddling pools, sandpits, and swing/climbing frames or simply as a cushioned mat for young children or babies to play on safely.

Rubber matting can also be laid on the floor of workshops, garages or home gyms and multi-gym equipment rooms. Rubber matting also protects laminate floors and acts as a shock absorber for multi-gym equipment.

Floor Matting

Floor matting is well suited for gymnasiums. Solid Top Rubber floor matting protects flooring from damage usually caused by the impact from dropping barbells in gyms. The rubber mats have cushioning features that protect free weight floors from scuffs and other damage. Many gym clubs have used Rubber floor matting for personal safety. Available in 16mm thicknesses, Rubber matting is a solid, durable material that is easy to install.
