Improves the anti-slip conditions on flooring surfaces
Fibreglass Flat Sheet
Our FRP (Fibre Reinforced Polymer) anti-slip flat sheet, also known as fibreglass flat sheet, is slip-resistant, durable, and low maintenance. It is easy to cut, fast to install and a cost-effective solution for upgrading any surface, including walkways, ramps, steps, and landings in industrial, commercial, and municipal applications.
Safety and Quality Above the Standard

Resin Systems
Our flat sheet panels use an SMC compression moulding process, ensuring consistent sheet thickness, uniform resin distribution and reliable surface finish quality.
Developed through more than a decade of refinement across resin chemistry, pigment stability, UV protection and manufacturing consistency, our resin platforms are engineered for long-term industrial performance in demanding environments.
- ISO-PLEX (Isophthalic Polyester Resin)
Developed for dependable all-round industrial performance, ISO-PLEX combines balanced resin chemistry, UV resistance, and moisture protection into a versatile FRP system designed for reliable structural performance and long-term visual consistency across outdoor and industrial applications.
The surface profile influences how our anti-slip products grip, wear, clean and perform underfoot. Each finish is designed for long-term consistency and industrial durability.
Our Surface Systems
Developed through years of real-world industrial application and refinement, our surface systems are designed to balance slip resistance, wear life, drainage performance and long-term durability.
- CARBIX Fine Grit
A refined anti-slip surface system using controlled grit grading and bonding technology to achieve a smoother underfoot finish while maintaining dependable slip resistance. Designed for pedestrian-focused and barefoot-friendly environments. - CARBIX Medium Grit
Our heavy-duty industrial anti-slip system, developed to maximise grit retention, wear life and long-term traction performance in demanding outdoor and industrial applications.
WATER ABSORPTION TESTING
Testing was carried out by SGS. in accordance with ASTM D570-22 on our moulded FRP products manufactured using ISO and VE resin systems.
Test Conditions:
Dried at 50 ± 2 °C for 24 h
Soaked in water at:
- 23 °C for 24 h
- 100 °C for 2 h
- 50 °C for 48 h
Measured Water Absorption (%):
| Condition | Sample A | Sample B | Assessment |
| 23 °C / 24 h | 0.17 % | 0.09 % | Excellent resistance – negligible absorption |
| 100 °C / 2 h | 0.49 % | 0.47 % | High stability – minimal uptake under heat |
| 50 °C / 48 h | 0.52 % | 0.71 % | Strong retention – remains below 1 % threshold |
Interpretation:
Results demonstrate consistently low water absorption across all temperature and duration tests, confirming a dense, well-cured laminate structure.
Moisture uptake remained below 1 %, supporting dimensional accuracy, mechanical reliability, and long-term surface integrity.
Performance levels are within the expected range for high-grade structural FRP composites and trend toward the lower end of typical absorption values, indicating slightly improved resistance compared with standard industry benchmarks.
LOW VOC PIGMENT
Our colour system utilises a polyester-based pigment dispersion that chemically bonds within the FRP matrix, rather than just coating it. This 100 % solids, low-VOC formulation delivers cleaner processing, longer-lasting colour, and superior UV stability compared to solvent-borne alternatives. It’s a smarter, more sustainable way to colour FRP.
ELECTRICAL INSULATION TESTING
Testing was carried out by SGS in accordance with ASTM D495-22 and ASTM D149-20 on our FRP moulded products manufactured using ISO and VE resin systems.
Test Conditions:
- Dry Arc Resistance (ASTM D495-22)
• Arcing voltage: 12.5 kV • Electrode gap: 6.35 mm • Environment: 23 °C / 50 % RH - Dielectric Breakdown (ASTM D149-20)
• Transformer oil medium • Voltage rise: 3000 V/s • Frequency: 50 Hz
Measured Electrical Performance:
| Property | Sample A (ISO resin) | Sample B (VE resin) | Assessment |
| Arc Resistance Time (s) | 182.5 s | 146.2 s | Excellent surface insulation – high resistance to tracking |
| Dielectric Strength (kV/mm) | 15.6 kV/mm | 12.5 kV/mm | Strong electrical barrier – stable under high voltage |
Interpretation:
Results confirm both resin systems deliver high-grade electrical insulation consistent with the requirements of ASTM D495 and D149.
The ISO-resin laminate achieved the highest overall performance, showing extended arc-resistance duration and greater dielectric strength, indicating a dense, well-cross-linked matrix with minimal conductive pathways.
The VE-resin laminate also exhibited strong insulating capability, remaining well within the range expected for premium structural FRP composites.
Electrical performance across both systems supports their suitability for installations requiring high-voltage isolation, reduced surface tracking, and long-term reliability in wet or industrial environments.
