Since 1965, fiberglass composites have found widespread application in the building, construction, transportation, and military sectors. However it has only been in the last 25 years that the special properties of exterior FRP panels have come to light, and the material has been employed in a greater variety of applications and sectors.
FRP structural panels are strong, resilient, seamless, and abuse-resistant
A fiberglass-woven roving laminate reinforced on both sides by a choice of core materials is fused under pressure and heat to create a smooth, high-gloss structural panel. A white polyester resin, internal continuous film, or gel coat finish is applied to the inside of the FRP panel to provide a seamless surface that is resistant to impact and abrasion from pallets, moving freight, and forklifts. For further strength in transportation applications, there is an internal scuff plate and/or numerous layers of fiberglass woven roving available. This special production technique results in an FRP panel that is weather-resistant, visually appealing, and uniformly thick.
FRP panels are simple to maintain and fix
Because FRP panels don't corrode or pit like metal ones, they save money and maintenance time. Normal wear and tear essentially has no effect on these FRP panels. The FRP panels are sleek, incredibly appealing, and simple to maintain. Standard gel coat exterior finishes resist fading, yellowing, and chalking and are easily cleaned.
Fiberglass Panel Technology
Several essential components are needed for successful fiberglass reinforced panel technology, including:
- Formulation of resin.
- Timetable for laminating of fiberglass.
- External details.
- Dependable procedures.
