FRP/GRP/RTRP Pipe fabrication & Installation
Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) is a composite material consisting of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. So, an FRP pipe is a pipe manufactured of FRP material by contact molding or filament winding method. Various types of resins like thermosetting polyester, epoxy, phenolic resin, etc are used to get specific FRP pipe properties in the final product. The most widely used reinforcement is the glass fiber “E-glass”. As a corrosion-resistant alternative to metallic piping, the FRP piping system has found worldwide application. Due to its high durability, corrosion resistance, and moderate strength, the use of FRP pipes is increasing day by day.
FRP piping systems are used in various industries like:
● Potable Water and Desalination Industries
● Chemical, Petrochemical, Oil & Gas Industries
● Ducting and Vent Piping
● Irrigation and Sanitary Services
● Water Distribution and Transmission
● Slurry Piping
● Power Plants
