Assembly: The possibility of pre-assembly in the factory and the simple handling without special tools shorten the assembly time on site. In addition, fewer personnel are required, which further re
Design freedom and material savings: GRP can be moulded into complex shapes that are difficult to achieve with conventional materials. As a result, the material can be used more efficiently, and wa
Production costs: Production processes for GRP, such as the pultrusion process, are often less energy-intensive and can be carried out faster than comparable processes for metal, which leads to cos
Energy efficiency: Due to the excellent insulating properties of GRP, energy losses can be minimised, for example, in insulation or in the construction industry. This leads to lower heating and coo
Very low maintenance: Since GRP does not rust and is very resistant to environmental influences, it requires less maintenance. This not only saves direct maintenance costs, but also downtime and th
Durability: GRP is extremely resistant to corrosion, moisture and many chemicals. As a result, the service life of products made of GRP is often significantly longer than that of conventional mater
Glass-fibre-reinforced plastic (GRP) is a material that offers considerable cost savings in various industries due to its unique properties. The following are some aspects of how GRP contributes to
