What Is a FRP Coating or FRP Lining?

If you are wondering “what is a FRP coating” or “what is an FRP lining”, this post should help!

What Is A FRP Coating?

FRP Coatings & Linings (Fibreglass Reinforced Plastics), is a superior coating and lining system formed by thermosetting resins and fiberglass to raise durability and safety by lining inside of piping systems chemical storage tanks, cooling towers, and other types of industrial process equipment.

In a lot of applications, FRP coating provides superior performance over other materials. When a polyester resin is used in combination with fiberglass, the coatings lifetime becomes longer and becomes much more corrosion resistant.

The GRP Coating method has a separate place in accordance to other insulation applications and demonstrates its superiority by utilizing a hand lay-up method with the use of unique roller brushes. This type of manual FRP coating system can be used out in the field safely, which requires more corrosion resistance and chemical acid resistant.

FRP Coating Applications

  • FRP water tanks and acid Overlays
  • Acid Cap GRP Skins
  • Concrete floor and roof coatings
  • Acid Ground FRP Overlays
  • Treatment Plant Isolation

What Is An FRP Lining?

FRP Lining is resin lining to raise safety and durability by lining the inside of a steel tank, water tanks, storage tanks, and cooling towers with FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics).

It provides strength and durability and is not affected by structural imperfections, which can occur. After completion of FRP lining, the tank will have the same strength as the FRP coated tank that is installed to the inside.

The material is a room-temperature-curing type and applicable for on-site lining and large-sized tanks.

FRP Coating and Lining With All Kote Lining, Inc

The FRP Lining and Coating that we manufacture is used abundantly in industries for a variety of purposes. FRP has several advantages that make it perfect for the unfriendly and hostile conditions of an industrial environment: weatherproof, non-corrosive, impact resistant and fire retardant. FRP is also resistant to chemicals (free from acidic, environmental and alkaline corrosion). That is why tanks that are used to store chemicals are lined with FRP. Our FRP is also leak proof and corrosion resistant. The material is excellent for fabricating rooftops and lining metal tanks. The FRP lining that All Kote Lining, Inc. supplies for industrial purposes are highly capable of resisting adverse conditions. Our FRP linings are of exceptional quality and are available at budget-friendly prices.

For its properties of chemical resistance, leak-proof or UV Proof, FRP lining and coatings are usually applied on an original substrate such as concrete, different types of steel, PVC, PP, PVDF, PE, EPS or any kind of thermoplastic. Underground steel tanks will need an external protection barrier to help protect itself from the weather or acidic environment. The FRP raw material applied in the lamination of lining and coating depends on the site conditions or as per customer specifications.
