 FIBERGLASS SYSTEMS

Power Plastic Rubber Co Ltd (PPR) designs, engineers, and fabricates

complete fiberglass structures that incorporate several fiberglass prod-
ucts. PPR has the capability to engineer and fabricate structures that
range from tank loading and walkway platforms to handrails and ladders.

reinforced polymer (FRP) structural shapes. Combining advanced de-
sign concepts, automated fabrication, and specialized technical assis-
tance MinGrate provides corrosion resistant FRP structures with life cy-
cle cost advantages over protected metal structures.

Resin Systems / Corrosion Protection

PPR’S fiberglass gratings and products are furnished in four fire retardant resin systems, each providing a different level of
corrosion protection.
Vinyl ester (V) products provide the highest level of corrosion protection and demonstrate better retention of structural
properties at elevated temperatures.
Isophthalic polyester (I) is a premium grade resin providing outstanding corrosion resistance for splash and spill expo-
sures in moderate temperature conditions. Polyester materials are typically lower in cost than vinyl ester products.
Phenolic (P) materials offering superior resistance to high temperature with low smoke and toxic fume emission. The non-
flammable nature of phenolic enable phenolic grating to withstand higher temperatures than traditional FRP products for
extended periods of time without major structural damage.
Orthophthalic polyester (O) materials have fair corrosion resistance and are the lowest cost, but are the least recom-
mended for extremely corrosive conditions

MinGrate® Molded Grating
MinGrate® molded fiberglass grating is a one-piece, reinforced FRP grat-
ing, available in various meshes and manufactured by interweaving con-
tinuous, thoroughly wetted, fiberglass strand with thermosetting resin sys-
tems. Standard panels are available in four resin systems, Isophthalic Pol-
yester (I), Vinyl Ester (V), Orthophthalic (O), Phenolic (P).

MinGrate® molded grating is widely used for floor systems, walkways,

work platforms, stairs, ramps, trench covers & catwalks and has been
successfully used in many industries – including food processing, bever-
age, chemical processing, water & wastewater treatment, metal finishing,
pulp/paper, transportation, pharmaceutical, textile, oil / gas & mining /
smelting, refining.

Features and Advantages

CORROSION RESISTANCE For highly aggressive environments,
MinGrate vinyl-ester resin system (VEFR) is
recommended. Unlike metal grating, it does
not rust and never needs painting. Combined
with superior corrosion resistance, mean that
MinGrate is a long-lasting, maintenance-free
product.

SAFETY The top surface of MinGrate Molded Grat-

ing is meniscus (concave) to provide out-
standing skid resistant, with optional grit
top surface to have betterment in anti-skid,
especially for wet environment.

FIRE RETARDANCY MinGrate Molded Grating is available in

eight standard resin systems, in which six
of them meet the Class 1 flame spread
rating of 25 or less, per ASTM E-84.

LOW MAINTENANCE Never rusts – never needs painting. And

it’s very easy to clean

EASE OF FABRICATION It is easy to cut with ordinary hand tools,

using a masonry, carbide tip blade or dia-
mond edge. (it is similar to working with
wood or plastic.)

MinGrate® Pultruded Grating
MinGrate® Pultruded Grating are in three types - T-Sections, I-Sections & HD
Series available are resin systems Isophthalic Polyester (I), Vinyl Ester (V), Or-
thophthalic (O), Phenolic (P).

T-sections provide maximum surface area underfoot thus the most comfortable
walking surface to prevent catching high heels and an excellent surface for two
wheel moving equipment. These designs are excellent for areas with high traffic
and light hand trucks or wheeled carts.

I-Sections are provided for applications where a close match to a steel or alumi-
num profile or to an existing installation is needed I–Section with bonded rod
crossbars (without locking assembly) are suitable for use in low pedestrian traffic
areas.

Heavy Duty (HD) solid bar grating is designed to take heavy wheel traffic such as
forklifts, tow motors and truck traffic.

Maximum panel size: 1524 x 6096mm

Standard colors: Light Gray, Dark Gray, Yellow, Green.
Standard cross bar spacing: 152mm on center or optional 305mm.
Custom lengths, colors, bar spacing, and finishes are available.

 MinTread®

MinTread® fiberglass stair treads deliver safety and

long lasting durability. Manufactured with premium polyester or
Vinyl Ester (V) resin, MinTreads® provide outstanding protec-
tion against corrosion and reliable structural performance. The
important safety benefits are addressed with slip resistant sur-
faces, non-conductivity, and low flame spread.
The most vulnerable point of a stair tread is the nosing. For
greater durability, MinTread® nosings are high strength, heavy
bars with slip resistant, gritted surface. With high structural
properties, the heavy bar nosing provides greater stiffness and
is more durable than a molded nosing.
Stair Tread Assembly

MinTreads are offered in pultruded and molded sections, each

with the heavy bar nosing. The pultruded parts are stronger
with greater span capability Both sections provide outstanding
protection against corrosion

It is helpful to identify Total Stair

Run and Total Stair Rise
dimensions, as well as intended
Tread Rise when designing and
estimating stair systems.

MinPlate / Covered Grating

MinPlate is a premium quality FRP flat sheet provided in 3.2mm, 6.4mm

and 9.5mm thicknesses. The top surface can be smooth or have a grit-
ted slip resistant surface. For covered grating applications, 3.2mm or
6.4mm. MinPlate is laminated to MinGrate molded and pultruded grat-
ings to form a flat and corrosion resistant working surface. These mate-
rials are used for applications, where free passage of light and air is not
desired nor drainage a requirement as in pit covers where reduction of
corrosive vapors is needed.

 MinTread® Cover
MinTread Covers are fabricated by multiple layers of fibreglass reinforcement
with specially formulated resins resulting in a solid composite panel with a carbon
Landing Cover
and the unique special hard wearing grit, embedded in to the 3mm thick fibreglass
substrate, provides an excellent slip resistant surface. The grit particles form pinna-
cles which minimize the surface contact of the foot in order to increase the slip
resistance intensively. Contrarily, traditional standard steel checker-plate steps
have much larger foot contact points which greatly increase the possibility of slips.

MinTread Landing Cover simply fit over your existing substrate to instantly im-
prove stair safety with strong slip resistance. The Nosing is in contrasting color to
the rest of the tread that make the step edge to be easily identified when ascending
and descending.
