Why GRP Fencing Is a Smarter Choice
From utility enclosures to transport infrastructure, fencing plays a critical role in securing people, assets, and boundaries. Traditional materials like timber and steel often struggle in demanding environments, especially when exposed to moisture or chemicals. That’s where GRP fencing comes in.
Manufactured using Glass Reinforced Plastic, GRP fencing provides a long-lasting, non-conductive and corrosion-resistant alternative that requires little to no maintenance over time. It’s a reliable solution for areas where security and durability are essential.
At Engineered composites, we supply high-spec GRP systems tailored to industrial needs, offering both performance and longevity without the upkeep costs of traditional materials.
Ideal for High-Risk and Harsh Environments
One of the key reasons why industries are switching to GRP fencing is its natural resistance to the elements. It doesn’t rust, rot, or conduct electricity, making it especially suited to:
- Electrical substations
- Railway trackside perimeters
- Chemical processing facilities
- Coastal and marine sites
Unlike metal fencing, GRP does not corrode or degrade when exposed to saltwater, UV rays, or extreme temperatures. This ensures that the fencing retains its integrity and appearance for years without repainting or replacing damaged sections.
If you’re looking to replace traditional fencing on your site, our GRP fencing solutions offer long-term peace of mind and lower total ownership cost.
Designed for Security and Compliance
GRP fencing is not only tough, it’s also designed with safety in mind. It is available in various heights and panel designs, making it suitable for both standard and high-security installations. Non-conductive properties also make it the preferred option for power networks and telecoms infrastructure.
In addition to being lightweight and easy to install, it is also available in colours that meet planning or visibility requirements. All our systems are compliant with UK safety regulations, and our team can guide you through choosing the right specification for your project.
