What we make possible

From standard profiles to finished structures.

Our GRP profiles, manufactured in Europe from glass fibre-reinforced composites, are characterised by their durability and high corrosion resistance, and represent a cost-effective alternative to conventional materials such as concrete, timber, stainless steel and aluminium. The wide range of applications for our GRP profiles spans a diverse array of sectors and industries. Whether for offshore applications, rail systems, the chemical industry or other infrastructure facilities – our profiles offer flexible solutions to complex challenges.

Why GRP?

Lightweight. Robust in use.

High strength, low weight and durability – four material benefits for demanding applications.

High strength

Highly resistant to tensile, bending and impact loads.

Lightweight

Makes handling, transport and assembly easier.

Corrosion-resistant

For use in damp and corrosive environments.

Electrically insulating

For electrical and thermal applications.

What we make possible

From standard profiles to finished structures.

GRP, short for glass-fibre-reinforced plastic, is a composite material consisting of a plastic matrix with glass fibres embedded within it. This combination gives GRP high strength and durability, whilst also making it lightweight and highly resistant to corrosion. The plastic – often a polyester, epoxy or vinyl resin – binds the glass fibres, which increase the material’s mechanical strength. Thanks to its versatile properties, GRP is used in a wide range of industries.

Frequently asked questions

Explained briefly. Answers straight away.

Answers to key questions about the material, its benefits and potential applications.

What are the advantages of GRP profiles over steel or aluminium?

A GRP profile is a component made from glass fibre-reinforced plastic. Synthetic resin and glass fibres combine low weight with high strength, as well as excellent resistance to corrosion, weathering and chemicals.

Does Fibrolux also manufacture bespoke profiles?

GRP is a composite material consisting of a plastic matrix and embedded glass fibres. Polyester, epoxy or vinyl resins are frequently used.

Can profiles be supplied fully machined?

GRP profiles offer high strength and durability, corrosion resistance, low weight, good insulating properties, weather resistance, adaptability and low maintenance requirements.

Which sectors are GRP solutions suitable for?

Typical areas of application include the construction sector, the automotive industry, electrical engineering, offshore applications, railway systems, the chemical industry and other infrastructure facilities.

Does Fibrolux provide support with design and material selection?

The choice depends on the geometry, load, environment, resin system and machining process. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
