The 38mm Open Mesh GRP Grating provides a robust and reliable solution for high-load access applications where strength and corrosion resistance are critical. Manufactured from glass-reinforced polymer (GRP), this grating combines exceptional mechanical performance with extended lifespan and minimal maintenance requirements.

Engineered for environments where traditional steel flooring may corrode or deteriorate, the 38mm profile offers excellent rigidity and span capacity. Its Open Mesh layout promotes drainage and ventilation, while the gritted surface ensures consistent slip resistance — even in environments exposed to oil, water, or chemical residues.

Technical Features and Performance

  • Thickness: 38mm standard panel
  • Load capacity: Suitable for pedestrian and heavy-duty industrial access areas
  • Material: Moulded GRP with fire-retardant resin system
  • Surface type: Gritted anti-slip finish, tested to BS 7976-2 standards
  • Corrosion resistance: Ideal for chemical plants, marine decks, and wastewater treatment sites
  • Installation: Can be cut and installed without hot works; supplied pre-fabricated or to site specifications
  • Maintenance: No galvanising or repainting required; retains integrity under continuous use

Typical Applications

  • Heavy-duty access platforms and plant flooring
  • Offshore and coastal installations
  • Pump stations and chemical processing areas
  • Maintenance walkways and inspection bridges
  • Service decks, jetties, and loading areas

IMS 38mm Open Mesh GRP Grating delivers dependable load performance and corrosion resistance across industrial and marine environments. Its strength-to-weight efficiency, safety compliance, and minimal maintenance make it an ideal choice for modern access and flooring applications.

38mm Open Mesh Grating FAQs

What type of loads can the 38mm Open Mesh grating support?

The 38mm thickness provides enhanced rigidity and load-bearing strength, suitable for frequent pedestrian traffic and heavier equipment, depending on support spans. 

How does GRP perform in corrosive or wet environments?

Unlike metal grating, GRP is inherently resistant to corrosion and chemical attack. It maintains structural strength in marine, industrial, and water treatment environments where steel would degrade. 

Can the panels be supplied to custom dimensions?

Yes. IMS offers a full cutting service to ensure each panel fits the specified layout, reducing on-site fabrication and installation time. 

Is the surface compliant with UK safety regulations?

Yes. Each grating panel is manufactured and tested to meet BS EN ISO 14122 for access structures, with a gritted top surface tested to BS 7976-2 for slip resistance.

What maintenance is required over time?

Routine cleaning is sufficient. The GRP composition eliminates corrosion-related maintenance, ensuring a consistent level of performance throughout its life cycle.
