Manufacturer · Lviv, Ukraine
We offer a wide range of FRP gratings at manufacturer prices: open-mesh and solid-top panels as well as TATRAGRATE profiles in various thicknesses and types — with the physical and chemical properties your project needs.
Our products are unrivalled in service life under harsh conditions — in contact with seawater or other aggressive liquids and gases.
Fibreglass-reinforced polymers
Key advantages
Light and strong
Less than half the weight of steel grating — installed without heavy equipment.
Long service life
30–40+ years in service. “Install and forget” — no painting, no galvanising.
Cost savings
Zero maintenance costs and cheaper installation deliver real savings over the whole life cycle.
Easy cutting and installation
Panels are cut on site with standard tools. Edges are sanded and sealed with resin.
Safety, slip resistance and UV stability
Non-conductive, non-sparking, non-magnetic. Concave or quartz-grit surface for wet and oily areas.

How a grating is made
From a glass fibre strand to a finished panel
1Reinforcement
Glass fibre
Continuous glass fibre strands are laid into the mould layer by layer in two directions. They carry the load — which is why the mesh is square and the strength is the same in every direction.
- 30%of panel weight
- 2reinforcement directions
- E / Cfibreglass types
2Moulding
Resin binds it into a monolith
The mould is filled with resin — orthophthalic, isophthalic, vinyl ester or phenolic. The resin wraps the fibres and cures into a single panel with no welds or joints.
- 70%of panel weight
- 5resin types
- −60…+180 °Coperating temperature
3Colour
Pigment throughout the mass
The colour is mixed into the resin before moulding and runs through the full thickness: it does not fade in the sun, peel or scratch off. Each series has its own standard RAL colour.
- 183RAL colours
- ≈1 monthcorporate colour
- UVcolour stability
4Surface
Slip resistance
As standard, the top of the bars is concave. For wet and oily areas, quartz crystals are fused into the surface — the highest slip-resistance class.
- 0.6–1.2 mmSiO₂ quartz grit
- +8.9 kg/m²solid top with quartz
- 3 mmcover plate
5Geometry
Dimensions to suit the task
Grating height and mesh size are chosen for the span and load. Panels are cut on site with ordinary tools, and the edges are sealed with resin.
- 26–50 mmheight
- 19 / 38 / 50mesh, mm
- 4047 × 1525panel up to, mm
6Testing
Load and “memory”
Under load the grating flexes elastically and fully returns to its shape once the load is removed. A 38×38 composite panel carries more than steel plate — and weighs three times less.

- 700 kgpoint load

Service life
Protective coating life
Steel plates need a new coating every 4 years and new flooring after 15 years. Composite needs no protective coating.
