Question:

What is GRP/FRP and what are the benefits of using GRP cable support systems?

Answer:

GRP/FRP stands for Glass Reinforced Polymer/Fiber Reinforced Polymer. It is a composite material made of a Polymer matrix (polymer) reinforced with glass fibers. Compared to traditional materials like steel or concrete, GRP/FRP is lighter, more durable, has high strength-to-weight ratio and more resistant to corrosion and environmental degradation.

The benefits of using GRP/FRP cable support systems include their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and non-conductive properties. They are also easy to install, low maintenance, and have a long service life.
