How Pipes Benefit from UV cured GRP
Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) is a composite material that offers high chemical resistance with great tensile strength and exceptional durability. GRP consists of glass fibers embedded in polyester or vinyl ester resin to strengthen it in an orientation tailored to a specific application. The extreme stability and durability of the material mixed with the glass fibers make it ideal for use in pipe protection. The outstanding mechanical characteristics of GRP manufactured pipe liners enhanced with UV cured GRP technology creates an optimal end product of the highest quality for use in the pipeline protection marketplace.
SolarTech, UV cured GRP used as a non-metallic cladding solution, meets the needs of varied types of industries like Oil & Gas, Power, Petrochemical, Water and Waste water, Municipal & General industries. On the market, for pipe and insulation protection, non-metallic cladding is fighting widely used metal cladding. There are many benefits of use of GRP as pipe and pipe insulation protection, however market is yet to step out of safety-zone of traditionally used metal cladding.
