Mining

Fiberglass-reinforced polymers were made to solve problems. For mining applications, that means long-term durability. Our material offers the strength of steel at a fraction of the weight, plus it won’t corrode, spark or conduct electricity. Because it weighs less, it’s easier to install. And the color is molded all the way through, so no painting is required.

Applications

For handrails, walkways, platforms and caged ladders, no other material gives you the same lightweight strength and long life for a lower cost in the long run.

Advantages

• Light weight, high strength — easier to transport and install with standard tools
• Corrosion resistant — won’t rot or rust and absorbs minimal moisture
• Humidity resistant — no shrinking or swelling
• Impact resistant — fiberglass mat distributes the load to prevent surface damage
• Safety — won’t conduct electricity, and non-slip surfaces are available
• Long-lasting — lower lifetime cost than traditional building materials
• Low thermal conductivity — does not easily conduct heat or cold
