GRP vs FRP
In Europe, it is commonly referred to as GRP (Glassfibre Reinforced Polyester), while in the United States, it is used as FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Polyester). The two terms mean the same thing. Let me introduce the SMC (sheet molding compound) method. Also known as pre-pregmat, it is used in sheet form as a molding material developed for the mass production of GRP products. It consists of unsaturated polyester resin, additives, fillers, and release agents. Catalysts, pigments, and chopped strands of glass are blended in. The sheet in the photo is GRP, with glass fiber mixed into the polyester. It is soft like clay, and features such as paint, UV protection, and anti-static properties are all included together.

Applications/Examples of results
Products manufactured by GRP are delivered as freeze prevention products for cold regions such as Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, as well as insulation, heat resistance, and UV resistance products for desert areas. We supply our products to most major companies in the oil, gas, chemical, and petrochemical industries.
Detailed information
-
Place an appropriate amount on the mold, and a product in the exact shape of the module is created through pressure and high temperature by pressing.
-
If you remove the dirt with a cutter, the product is complete.
-
It is possible to create various molded products.
-
GRP Manufacturing Process We manufacture sheet-like GRP by mixing glass fibers and resin. (In the center of the photo) At this stage, the GRP is still soft like rubber. (On the right of the photo) The soft GRP is being cut.
-
We cut it meticulously by hand to fit the mold. After that, we compress and mold the GRP with the machine on the right.
-
Cut the excess parts, tidy up, and complete. We manufacture various products using molds for diamond boxes and multi boxes.
-
We are collecting our multi-boxes and cabinets that have been used for over 30 years. Their condition is good, and they can still be used sufficiently. Products made of GRP are durable, require no maintenance costs, and have a long lifecycle.

Company information
Protecting internal equipment from environments such as cold, heat, corrosion, and chemical areas. Founded in Germany in 1965, our company has a history of 50 years and has achieved an annual growth of 15%. The reason for this growth lies in our unique GRP material. As experts in GRP material, we manufacture enclosures, cabinets, and shelters, while simultaneously providing heating and cooling systems installed inside. We are a German manufacturer that offers diverse solutions to protect delicate field equipment in chemical plants, petrochemical plants, and other industries worldwide. We protect internal measurement, control, and analysis equipment from environments such as freezing, excessive heat, corrosion, and condensation. All of our products are made from GRP (glass-reinforced polyester) material, which has a very low thermal conductivity, allowing us to maximize the efficiency of cooling and heating systems. 【ISO Certification】 ISO 9001 ISO 14001
