What are GRP linings?
Also known as glass-reinforced plastic, GRP combines the strength of glass with the durability and flexibility of plastic. GRP lining incorporates layers of reinforced plastic, ensuring durability, flexibility, and resistance to corrosion. The structural integrity of GRP makes it an ideal candidate for a myriad of industrial applications. As a leading Waterproofing Contractors in Dubai, we provide best maintenance services for your roof.
A GRP lining is made by first creating a matt of chopped glass strands and then coating it with a polymer. The result is a sheet of GRP lining measuring 2-3mm in thickness (including reinforced matting) which is flexible, lightweight, durable, and waterproof.

Lightweight
GRP linings are lightweight, simplifying both transport and installation. Their minimal weight addition ensures they do not excessively burden a structure.
Minimal Maintenance
Requiring very little maintenance, fibreglass linings typically only need an occasional clean to remain in good condition.
Easy to Repair
Although damage is rare, repairs to GRP linings are usually straightforward and quick when needed.
Corrosion Resistant
Constructed from durable materials, fibreglass linings display resistance to corrosion and can withstand UV degradation.
Chemical Resistant
GRP linings exhibit resistance to many chemicals. Manufacturers can collaborate with clients to ensure the chosen product meets specific performance requirements.
Impact Resistant
Offering a high level of impact resistance, GRP linings allow manufacturers to tailor the strength and flexibility by adjusting the glass-to-plastic ratio.
Long Lifespan
Installed with a 25-year warranty, fibreglass linings are expected to last well beyond this period, contributing to their long lifespan.
Design Versatility
GRP linings provide versatile design options with customizable colors, glossy or matt finishes, and optional non-slip textures, catering to diverse aesthetic preferences.
