Grating

Stock Grating

Stock grating is flame retardant fiberglass grating. This grating comes in polyester or vinyl ester resin.[note]The standard polyester resin used in DURADEK® is fire retardant and meets the requirements for a Class 1 flame rating of 25 or less per ASTM E-84 and meets the self-extinguishing requirements of ASTM D-635. The resin also contains a UV inhibitor.[/note] The bearing bars use both longitudinal and multi directional reinforcements as well as a synthetic surfacing veil to provide unequaled corrosion resistance. Stock colors are Gray & Yellow.
Stock Pultruded Grating is available in I-Bar 1” or 1- ½”, and T-bar 2”.

Custom Grating

Custom pultruded grading. This option lets you choose the bar spacing, bar shape, and cross-rod placement to suit your specific application needs. DURAGRID® offers a wide selection of resin options including polyester, vinyl ester, phenolic, modar, etc. Other options feature UV inhibitors, various colors and specialized additives.

Decking

Safdeck

A specially designed system of 24″ wide, slip resistant, fiberglass panels that overlap for a continuous solid surface. SAFDECK® is intended to replace wood, aluminum or steel decking in environments where corrosion or rotting creates costly maintenance problems or unsafe conditions.

Strongdek

STRONGDEK™ fiberglass decking is an attractive, low-maintenance architectural decking system that offers an alternative to traditional decking materials. The panels will not rot, rust, chip or mildew, which make them ideal for high-moisture environments, including saltwater. STRONGDEK™ commonly replaces wood or plastic lumber in applications requiring stronger decking materials. STRONGDEK™ panels are designed to connect to form a continuous solid surface utilizing an innovative interlocking design. The 12″ wide deck sections are easily installed with screw-like fasteners that are not visible, creating a smooth, attractive surface.

Safplate

Fiberglass gritted plate is a tough, corrosion resistant floor plate. SAFPLATE®’s unique combination of pultruded fiberglass plate and an anti-skid grit surface creates textured solid sheet flooring that is ideal for both wet and dry environments. Used in a variety of applications such as pedestrian bridge walkways for sure footing, SAFPLATE® provides a long-lasting maintenance-free alternative to steel plate for severe, corrosive environments.
