Pultruded FRP Walkways
At Venkateswara Suppliers Pvt. Ltd. (VSPL), we manufacture high-performance Pultruded FRP Walkways that are engineered to deliver superior strength, safety, and durability across various demanding industrial and environmental applications. Our pultruded walkways provide outstanding performance in industries such as solar, chemical, offshore, and manufacturing.
Why Choose VSPL Pultruded FRP Walkways Over Moulded Gratings?
Both FRP Pultruded and FRP Moulded Gratings offer excellent performance, but pultruded walkways are often the better choice when high strength, longer spans, and precision engineering are essential.
Key Advantages of Pultruded FRP Walkways
Pultruded vs. Moulded Grating: A Comparison
| Characteristic | Pultruded Grating | Moulded Grating | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Process | Glass fibers are pulled through a resin matrix via a heated die, making it more uniform. | Hand-lay process in a mold. | Pultruded grating is more uniform and less prone to air bubbles. |
| Glass Content | 60-65% glass content, with some grades reaching 70%. | 30-35% glass content, higher resin content. | Pultruded grating is stronger due to higher glass content. |
| Corrosion Resistance | Excellent resistance to corrosion. | Corrosion-resistant but less durable than pultruded. | Both have corrosion resistance, but pultruded lasts longer. |
| Section Types | Can produce defined sections like I-beams, angles, and flats. | Only grating and limited profiles. | Pultrusion allows for customizable structural sections. |
| Structural Strength | Fabricated using I-sections for high strength. | Entirely hand-layed in molds. | Pultruded grating is significantly stronger. |
| Finish | Uniform surface due to added surface veil. | No surface veil. | Pultruded grating has a more uniform surface finish for better durability. |
| Quality of Materials | Consistent, defined raw material quality. | Depends on mold and manufacturer. | Pultruded grating uses higher-quality materials. |
| Anti-Slip Properties | Yes, provides excellent anti-slip properties. | Yes, provides good anti-slip properties. | Both are slip-resistant, but pultruded has superior durability. |
| Size Flexibility | Can be customized in width and length. | Fixed sizes. | Pultrusion offers greater flexibility in size and design. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Pultruded FRP walkways offer higher strength, better load-bearing capacity, and dimensional accuracy compared to moulded gratings. Pultrusion uses a continuous process, resulting in more uniform walkways, while moulded grating is hand-layed, which may lead to inconsistencies like air bubbles.
Pultruded FRP walkways are lightweight, UV-resistant, and corrosion-resistant, making them the ideal choice for solar rooftops. They are also easy to install and require minimal maintenance.
Yes, pultruded FRP walkways are designed to handle greater loads and provide long-lasting support in environments such as industrial platforms and maintenance walkways.
Yes, pultruded FRP walkways can be customized in size, color, and resin types to suit specific project requirements. We can also produce walkways in different shapes like I-beams, flats, and angles.
Corrosion: Traditional materials like steel can rust and corrode over time, while pultruded FRP walkways remain corrosion-free, ensuring a longer lifespan. Heavy Weight: Unlike metal walkways, pultruded FRP walkways are significantly lighter, reducing transportation and installation costs. Maintenance Costs: Pultruded FRP walkways require little to no maintenance compared to metal alternatives, reducing long-term operational costs.
Pultruded FRP walkways typically have a service life of 20+ years with minimal maintenance, making them an excellent long-term investment.
