Gritted plate and stair nosings can be manufactured using either general purpose grade or Class 1 fire rated ISOPHTHALIC RESIN SYSTEMS .
However, for the ultimate in fire resistance, PHENOLIC RESINS can be incorporated, which not only provide the best fire resistance of any known composite material, but also produce virtually no toxic fumes or smoke in the event of a fire. GRP gritted panels and nosings are currently used in the London Underground network, and in other high-risk applications such as refineries, chemical plant & offshore installations.

Alternative resin systems such as Atlac’s or vinyl esters can be utilised giving a product with a high degree of chemical resistance, which can be installed in the harshest of environment.
