Although light in weight, the strength to weight ratio of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) products surpasses that of equivalent steel products. Our FRP products weigh 1/3 that of steel products and are pound for pound stronger. This makes them easy to install, reduces the possibility of lifting accidents, and lowers transportation costs. AMICO Seasafe® FRP products are available in both polyester and vinylester resin systems. Our Fiber Reinforced Plastics are manufactured to meet ASTM E-84, Class 1 Flame Rating and self-extinguishing requirements of ASTM D-635. FRP material will not rust, nor does it ever require painting. AMICO Seasafe® FRP products are in two colors: gray (polyester resin) and beige (vinylester resin), with custom colors available upon request. A surface veil is applied during the pultrusion process to ensure a resin-rich surface for superior corrosion resistance, as well as an ultraviolet exposure barrier.
With high quality products and considerate service, we will work together with you to enhance your business and improve the efficiency. Please don't hesitate to contact us to get more details of Understanding the Distinction Between FRP and Fiberglass.
