FRP Products for

Food & Beverage Facilities
Food and Beverage Facilities throughout the world use
Fibergrate products to help reduce accidents, worker fatigue,
corrosion and the high cost of stainless steel.
Fibergrates slip-resistant fiberglass grating, stair treads,
floor plate, structural shapes, and ladders and handrail systems
have provided long-lasting walking and working surfaces for
the food and beverage industry for more than 30 years.
We have a world-wide network of engineers, representatives and
distributors available to help you design, fabricate and
install Fibergrates products.

Slip Resistant
Slips and falls are a major problem for the food and
beverage industry. Wet, oily conditions are accidents
waiting to happen in your facility. According to the
National Safety Council, slips and falls are the second
leading cause of lost workdays. Each lost workday costs
an average of $35,000.
Fibergrate slip-resistant products have consistently
reduced slips and falls in food and beverage
facilities. Fibergrate grating, stair treads and covers, and
floor plate feature a long-lasting, slip-resistant surface.
Even after years of abuse, Fibergrates products provide

Ergonomic
Fibergrate products have a slight resiliency that makes
them comfortable to stand on for long periods.
This ergonomic benefit reduces back, leg and foot
strain, increasing worker comfort and comfort and
productivity. Fibergrate products are recommended by
leading ergonomic consultants to the food and beverage
industry.

High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Fibergrate products meet specified load requirements
for steel and are more impact resistant than metal.
