Why choose GRP handrails?
- Corrosion resistance: Unlike steel, GRP handrails do not rust or degrade when exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme weather conditions.
- Lightweight & easy to install: Fibreglass handrails are significantly lighter than steel, making them easy to transport and install without welding or heavy machinery.
- Impact resistance: GRP handrails are designed to absorb impact while maintaining structural integrity, making them ideal for high-traffic environments.
- Low maintenance: GRP handrails do not require painting, coating, or ongoing maintenance, which saves time and long-term costs.
- Warm to the touch: Unlike metal handrails, GRP remains comfortable to hold even in extreme temperatures, enhancing user comfort and safety.
