Corrosion and chemical resistance guide
Corrosion is a major problem within industries such as chemical, steel, food and beverage, water and wastewater, power – the list goes on.
Safe Tread fibreglass Grating is particularly designed to provide safe, long-lasting, economical and worry-free solutions in environments where chemicals and other corrosives attack metal, wood and similar materials.
All grating products listed have a Type O - Orthophthalic Polyester resin finish.
Depending on the environment, resins such as Isophthalic polyester, Vinylester or Phenolic may be used in the construction of our Grating.
