Pultruded Grating and Molded Grating are two common types of grating used in various industrial applications. Here is a comparison between them:


Due to the hard carbon nanofibers and abundant welded joints among the nanofibers, the hard carbon aerogels display robust and stable mechanical performances, including super-elasticity, high strength, extremely fast recovery speed (860 mm s-1) and low energy loss coefficient (<0.16). After tested under 50 % strain for 104 cycles, the carbon aerogel shows only 2 % plastic deformation, and retained 93 % original stress.



The selection of the resin option also depends upon the purpose of use. For the general purposes Orthophthalic Polyester is more suitable. Some other resin options are Vinyl Ester, Isophthalic Polyester (or ISO), Fire Retardant and USDA certified. All resin options are UV Resistant and are designed for different purposes and conditions.
Available in various colors and styles, such as green, yellow, grey, orange and various other custom colors, fiberglass grating is more appealing in look as well. To ensure the longevity of the product, color is permanently added to the resin formula. The color and style of the grating are decided, while keeping the safety hazards in account. Some of the most prominent industries that use fiberglass gratings are waste water treatment plants, food processing plants, aquariums, power plants, chemical plants, lift stations, plating shops and also plants with canning and beverage facilities.
Fiberglass Grating is the contemporary and modern alternative to metal grating, it is not only architecturally more attractive; but is also highly resistant to corrosive environments. Fiberglass reinforced plastic grating, commonly referred to as FRP grating is a composite material, which is manufactured by the combination of a matrix of resin and fiberglass. Fiberglass grating is also fire retardant in nature, along with being non-conductive and light weight, making it a popular grating option for industrial structures and various other usages such as; fire escapes, raised floors, platforms, drain covers, protective shields, stair treads, walkways, docks and trench covers. Commonly used for floor grating, FRP is simpler to install than metal grating, due to its light weight. It does not require heavy machinery for the installation.
