Figures are indicative, for a uniformly distributed load. A dash (–) means the load is not recommended at that span. Always confirm spans, loading and support details with us for your project.
Not sure 25mm will take your load? Send us the span and how the area will be used, and we’ll confirm the right panel before you order.

25mm GRP Grating FAQs
It is a 25mm thick glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) open mesh panel designed as a lightweight, corrosion-resistant alternative to traditional steel grating.
Common applications include access walkways, platforms, plant surrounds, marine installations, water treatment sites and public access routes where slip resistance and corrosion resistance are critical.
The gritted surface achieves an enhanced slip resistance with a coefficient of friction (CoF) of 1.04, tested to BS 4592-0.
Yes. The panels offer frost resistance with no effect recorded under DD CEN/TS 772-22:2006 and have passed weatherability testing to MOAT 22.
Yes. With a voltage breakdown of 18 kV/mm (ASTM D149), GRP provides excellent electrical insulation compared with metal grating.
The 25mm GRP grating is suitable for operating temperatures from −100 °C to +200 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial environments.
Yes. Yes. The load table on this page shows deflection by span, and you can view all our GRP grating load tables or download them as a PDF. We can also confirm spans and loading for your specific project.
