GRP (Glass reinforced plastic) is an incredibly versatile product used in many applications where conventional materials cannot meet required specifications and standards such as fire ratings, impact resistance and weight considerations.
Since 1988. Smyth Composites have specialised in the manufacture of through colour GRP panels and have grown to become possibly the largest manufacturer of "thick sheet" products in the UK.
FYBATEX panels are manufactured by combining hundreds of thousands of glass strands with pigmented thermoset UV resins, to produce an immensely strong and durable panel whilst maintaining an attractive appearance, and can be produced to incorporate the following features:
• ANY BS OR RAL COLOUR
• U.V. RESISTANT
• IMPACT RESISTANT
• ANY THICKNESS
• LOW MAINTENANCE
• GRAFFITI RESISTANT
• HIGH STRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO
6mm thick Impact Resistant Crinkle Panels
All Fybatex products can be manufactured with a variety or combination of surface finishes . The inclusion of our unique surface membrane can significantly enhance the quality, appearance and lifespan of panels, by providing high level of U.V. and graffiti resistance.
Choices include:
- Deep crinkle – Excellent scuff, scratch and abrasion resistance. Embossed surface detracts from graffiti by marker pens and “carving” from sharp instruments.
- U.V. Leatherette – A lightly embossed surface which incorporates a clear heat bonded polyester film, and provides excellent U.V. and graffiti resistance.
- U.V Smooth – Again, incorporating the heat bonded polyester film to a resin rich and fibre free surface> (mid gloss).
- Resotex – A through colour pigmented sheet with a two pack polyester surface coating providing a smooth satin finish very similar in appearance to high pressure laminates (minimum order quantity of this product is 25m2).
Other surface finishes such as high gloss woodgrain and matt finish can be achieved to specific customer requirements.
APPLICATIONS INCLUDE:
› BALCONY PANELS
› DOOR FACING
› INFILL PANELS
› CURTAIN WALLING
› PATENT GLAZING
› HYGIENIC LINING
› SOFFIT PANELS
› KICK PLATES
› KENNELS & CATTERIES
FABRICATION
Fybatex panels are supplied in either sheet form or manufactured to size. There are however occasions where panels may have to be trimmed or drilled on site. Despite the high strength and impact resistance, Fybatex panels are easily fabricated using conventional tools without risk of breaking or fragmenting.
