Features of GRP:
Corrosion Resistance
GRP is made from a composite of glass fiber and polyester resin. GRP is an inert substance with superb corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and weathering resistance.
Non-Toxicity
GRP can be rendered in exact accordance with the laws of forces governing the construction of pipe that will come into contact with potable water and foodstuffs thanks to filament winding processing technologies combined with polymerization and vaporization processes.
Hydraulic Efficiency
GRP with a smooth internal surface has a high “c” rating, allowing them to carry a high flow at a low frictional head loss, lowering pumping costs and saving energy.
Longer Service Life
The hydraulic design base (HDB) of GRP is such that it would have a protection factor of 1.8 times its pressure class even after 50 years of continuous operation. In comparison to C.I., STEEL, G.I., and P.S.C. Pipes, GRP can have a much longer operating life, longevity, and performance at a much lower life-cycle expense.
Surge Pressure
High surge pressure tolerance In comparison to steel and C.I. pipes, GRP has a greater resistance to surge strain and higher stiffness, which means they have a lower risk of bursting due to water hammers.
Lightweight
As compared to other materials, GRP has a lower strength-to-weight ratio. It is low in weight due to the use of 1/10 P.S.C., 1/5 steel, and 1/8 C.I. As a result, GRP is simple and quick to add, handle, modify, and fix.
Low Thermal & Electrical Inductivity
GRP has superior thermal insulating properties, so they don’t need to be heated on the outside to keep the temperature within the pipe consistent. For GRP cathodic security is also not needed.

Fire Retardant Properties :
- GRP can be specially manufactured with fire retardant properties for fire fighting applications.
- Industries can use GRP made from fire retardant resin in order to reduce the possibility of the pipes themselves catching fire at the same time getting desired pressure in the system without fear of leakage due to corrosion which is the most common phenomenon in mild steel pipes.
