One hazard reduction method involves the use of properly designed and installed barrier rail systems. Traditionally, these rails have been constructed from materials like wood, steel, or aluminium. However, these materials come with limitations that can compromise their effectiveness and longevity. Here, we will explore a superior solution for barrier rails: **Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP)**. ## The Advantages of GRP Barrier Railing GRP barrier rails offer a number of advantages over traditional materials like steel, aluminium, and wood. | **GRP Barrier Rail Properties & Advantages** | **GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic)** | **Steel** | **Aluminium** | **Wood** | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Strength-to-Weight Ratio (Lightweight Strength) | High (Excellent) | Medium | Medium | Low | | Corrosion Resistance (Rust and Rot Proof) | Excellent (Does Not Rot or Rust) | Poor (Susceptible to Rust) | Good (Moderate Corrosion Resistance) | Poor (Susceptible to Rot) | | Design Flexibility (Customisable Shapes) | High (Versatile) | Low | Medium | High (Versatile) | | Fatigue Resistance (Long-Term Durability) | Excellent (Highly Durable) | Fair | Good | Low | | Electrical Conductivity (Non-Conductive) | Non-conductive (Excellent Electrical Insulator) | Conductive | Conductive | Non-conductive When Dry | | Cost (Initial Investment) | Medium | Low | Medium | Low | | Life Cycle Cost (Long-Term Savings) | Low (Minimal Maintenance, Long Lifespan) | Medium (Regular Maintenance & Coatings Required) | Medium | High (Regular Maintenance, Repairs, & Painting Required) | | Installation (Ease of Installation) | Easy (Lightweight) | Moderate to Difficult (Heavy) | Moderate | Variable | ![GRP Safety Barrier Rail](https://blog.fibergrate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/.Blog%20Images/FRP%20Railings/FRP%20Safety%20Barrier%20Rail.jpg?width=2000&height=1500&name=FRP%20Safety%20Barrier%20Rail.jpg) Fibergrate GRP barrier rail at water treatment facility   ## GRP Barrier Rail in Specific Commercial Applications GRP barrier rails are versatile and can be used in a wide range of commercial and industrial applications: ### Retail Environments: - **Protecting Customers and Employees:** Barrier rails can safeguard customers and employees in high-traffic areas, such as around escalators, stairs, and display cases. - **Enhancing Store Aesthetics:** GRP barrier rails can be customised to match the specific design aesthetic of a store, creating a cohesive and visually appealing environment. ### Warehouses and Distribution Centres: - **Safeguarding Workers and Equipment:** Barrier rails can protect workers from falls and collisions with equipment in warehouse environments. - **Preventing Product Damage:** Barrier rails can help prevent accidental damage to inventory and equipment. ### Museums and Galleries: - **Safeguard valuable artifacts:** Barrier rails protect priceless exhibits from accidental damage caused by visitors. - **Enhance visitor experience:** Barrier rails can guide visitors through exhibits while ensuring they do not get too close to fragile artworks. ### Zoos and Aquariums: - **Protect visitors from potential animal encounters:** Barrier rails protect visitors from exhibitor trenches and create a safe distance between visitors and animals, preventing accidental contact or injuries. - **Guide visitor flow:** Barrier rails can direct visitor traffic, especially in darker indoor exhibits, ensuring a smooth and safe flow. ## Customisation and Installation [GRP barrier rails](https://www.fibergrate.uk/products/dynaraildynaround-guardrail-handrail-products/) offer a high degree of customisation to meet specific needs and preferences. They can be tailored to fit various applications and environments, including: - **Height:** Barrier rails can be customised to different heights to meet specific safety requirements. - **Shape:** A variety of shapes and configurations are available, including straight, curved, and angled sections. - **Finish:** GRP barrier rails can be finished in a variety of colours and textures to match the aesthetic of the surrounding environment. ### Professional Installation Proper installation is crucial to ensure the safety and longevity of GRP barrier rail systems. Fibergrate offers professional installation services to guarantee that the system is installed correctly and meets all safety standards. By working with experienced professionals, you can be confident that your barrier rail system will provide optimal protection and performance. ## GRP Barrier Rail Success Story - The Kawaihau Boardwalk [The Kawaihau Boardwalk](https://www.fibergrate.uk/case-studies/architectural-commercial-case-studies/kawaihau-elevated-boardwalk-with-grp-structural-shapes/) project in Kapa'a, Hawaii, is a prime example of how GRP can be used to create stunning and durable infrastructure. The project aimed to revitalise a dilapidated boardwalk and create a safe and accessible path for pedestrians and cyclists. Fibergrate Composite Structures provided a solution using Dynaplank™ Boardwalk Plank and Dynaform® GRP pultruded shapes. The result is a beautiful and functional boardwalk that withstands the harsh coastal environment. The GRP components are resistant to corrosion, rot, and insect damage, ensuring a long lifespan and minimal maintenance requirements. This case study highlights the versatility and durability of GRP in real-world applications. ## GRP Barrier Railing by Fibergrate Fibergrate is a leading manufacturer of high-quality GRP barrier rail systems.
