FRP Ladders

The Many Benefits Of FRP Ladders

FRP Ladders (fibre-reinforced plastic or polymer) are comprised of various fibres like fibreglass, aramid or carbon and reinforced with polymers like polyester thermostatic plastic, vinylester or epoxy.  Typically they are used in the construction, automotive, marine and aerospace industries.  You will see this type of ladder in large industrial factories winding around vats or other structures to make it easier for workers to access areas of interest.

FRP Ladders are typically stationary or fixed but can also be found as step, extension ladder types.  Since these are specialty ladders the companies that manufacture them are typically experts in the engineering field.  Examples of some of the trade names include FRP Engineering, Waters Marine, Composite Engineering, Sivaram Fibre Tech Pvt Ltd, Beimco FRP Products, Sintex Industries Limited and Structural Fiberglass, Inc. (SFI).

There are many advantages of using FRP Ladders.

• Lightweight - This type of ladder is much lighter than those made from steel or aluminum.
• Corrosion Resistant - Even with little to no special coatings they will not rust, peal or flake and are resistant to a large scope of corrosive materials.
• Fire Retardant - The materials used for this kind of ladder meets the requirements for self-extinguishing and has a low-flame spreading index.
• High Strength to Weight Ratio - Don't let the lightweight design make you think these ladders can't carry their weight.  The strength to weight ratio on them are higher than other types including steel.
• Non-Metallic and Non-Conductive - Since there is not enough (if any in most types) metal used in making them, they stop sparks and have a low thermal conductivity rating.
• Easy to Install - Because they are lightweight, they are easy to assemble, install and in some cases they can be disassembled and reassembled in another location.

Ever since the development of FRP products more industrial companies are utilizing this valuable, durable and cost effective solution.  There are several forms of FRP products like railings and cages that can be and are used in conjunction with FRP Ladders in large industrial venues.  If you are shopping for this type of ladder you can buy them new or used depending on your budget. You should have no problem researching the various companies that produce them online.
