In the industrial world, the use of grating goes far beyond simply serving as a footing or area cover. More importantly, grating plays a significant role in ensuring safety and comfort, especially in designated areas that require extra protection. One of the most widely used grating products is Molded Grating, with Mini Mesh and Micro Mesh types being the top choices for such needs.

What is Molded Grating?

In general, Molded Grating is an FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) grid produced through an open mold process, where dry glass fibers and thermoset resin are laid into a mold in two directions (bi-directional). Once the material is placed in the correct proportion, the resin is allowed to cure inside the open mold.

Specifically, Molded Grating is manufactured in square or rectangular mesh patterns.

• Square mesh grating offers uniform strength in both longitudinal and transverse directions.

• Rectangular mesh grating provides optimized strength in the longitudinal direction.

This product is commonly used in industrial areas, platforms, pedestrian pathways, stairways, and any area requiring a high-safety flooring system.

Mini Mesh and Micro Mesh: Grating Solutions for Specialized Areas

Within the Molded Grating product line, there are two specialized types designed for specific environments: Mini Mesh and Micro Mesh. Both feature smaller openings compared to standard grating, making them safer and more comfortable to use in high-risk zones or maintenance areas, where preventing tools or small objects from falling is essential.
