GRP Boxed Section
GRP Boxed Section is a non-conductive, lightweight, corrosion-resistant profile engineered for demanding environments. Pultruded as a square hollow section, it can be used as a standalone profile or combined into an inter-sliding barrier system.
Our GRP boxed section is constructed from the highest quality glass reinforced plastic making it lightweight, and also chemical, rust, and corrosion resistant whilst offering longevity and durability.
