The GRP Open Mesh grating range from IMS provides a durable, lightweight, and low-maintenance alternative to traditional steel flooring systems. Manufactured from high-strength glass-reinforced polymer (GRP), these panels are designed for long-term performance in demanding industrial and commercial environments.

The Open Mesh layout delivers excellent drainage and ventilation, while the gritted surface ensures reliable slip resistance, even in wet or oily conditions. Fire-retardant, corrosion-resistant, and non-conductive, this grating range offers outstanding safety and structural integrity for sites where metal flooring may fail or require frequent maintenance.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Lightweight and strong: GRP’s superior strength-to-weight ratio simplifies transport, handling, and installation.
  • Corrosion and chemical resistant: Performs exceptionally well in marine, water treatment, and industrial process environments.
  • Non-conductive and fire-retardant: Safe for use near electrical systems and compliant with fire safety standards.
  • Slip-resistant surface: Grit finish provides secure footing and reduces accident risk in challenging conditions.
  • Open mesh structure: Ensures efficient drainage and air circulation, preventing water build-up and material corrosion.
  • Custom sizes and finishes: Available in a range of panel thicknesses and colours, cut to specification for ease of installation.

Applications

  • The Open Mesh GRP grating range is ideal for:
  • Walkways, mezzanines, and access platforms
  • Inspection decks and plant areas
  • Bridge decks and utility crossings
  • Chemical, marine, and power generation facilities
  • Maintenance platforms and drainage-heavy environments

GRP Open Mesh Grating FAQs

What is the main advantage of Open Mesh GRP grating?

The Open Mesh format allows liquids and debris to pass through freely, reducing slip hazards and improving drainage. It’s a practical solution for high-risk areas where safety and cleanliness are essential. 

Can GRP Open Mesh grating handle heavy industrial loads?

Yes. Depending on the chosen panel thickness—typically 25mm, 38mm, or 50mm—GRP gratings can support substantial loads, making them suitable for plant platforms, walkways, and service decks.

How does GRP perform compared to steel in corrosive or outdoor environments?

Unlike steel, GRP does not rust or corrode, even when exposed to saltwater, chemicals, or UV light. Its non-conductive and low-maintenance properties make it an excellent choice for long-term installations. 

Does IMS offer bespoke sizes or colour options?

Yes. Panels can be supplied cut to size to fit site layouts or frameworks precisely. Colour matching to RAL standards is also available for aesthetic or safety zoning requirements.

Is the product compliant with industrial safety standards?

Yes. IMS GRP Open Mesh grating is manufactured to meet BS EN ISO 14122 for access and walkway applications and uses fire-retardant resin systems tested to ASTM E 84 standards.
