FIBREGLASS FOR RAIL INDUSTRY

The Railways of the Future

Fibreglass composite is a non-electrically conductive material that makes it particularly suitable for applications near traction current, cables, and distributions boards along railways.

Our GFRP gratings and profiles are especially suitable for applications along railways such as platforms, stairs, and walkways. GFRP is electrically insulating and thus minimises the complexity of earthing during electrical fittings and repairing. This makes the profiles a future-proof choice, where costs for both construction and future inspections can be significantly reduced.

Our fibreglass solutions are incredibly easy to work with because they are uncomplicated to assemble and have a low weight that makes them easy to install. The GFRP material also has the advantage that it is corrosion-free and incredibly strong, which is why it is not damaged by the impact of heavy traffic nearby or changing weather conditions. Consequently, giving your constructions a long lifespan with minimal maintenance - an important long-term financial benefit.

Furthermore, all our gratings have a non-slip surface, which makes them the optimal solution for railway stairs and walkways, ensuring the rail staff safe access during service.

With both aBG, the German building approval, and EBA, Fiberline Building Profiles has the whole package of certification to build strong applications in the railway sector. This makes it easier for you to work with fibreglass because they can buy all their certified GFRP profiles in one place and get the entire solution approved for their rail applications.

Combining advantages

CE marking

Our products have a number of international and highly sought-after certifications, among other, within the construction, offshore and railway sectors. This is your guarantee of consistently high quality every time you buy from us and use our products.

Low weight

Fiberline's GRP profiles are low in weight. This makes them easier to work with and means that great weight savings can be achieved on the finished structure.

Great strength

Fiberline Building Profiles give you the same great strength as steel, but at only a quarter of the density. It is also possible to make weight savings in comparison with aluminium, as the density is 30 % lower.

Corrosion-free

Our fibreglass profiles are resistant to aggressive chemicals, and liquids. This makes them ideal for wastewater treatment plants, swimming pools, cooling towers and construction, where there is a risk of corrosion.

Chemical resistance

Our fibreglass profiles are resistant to aggressive chemicals, liquids and alkalis. This makes them ideal for wastewater treatment plants, swimming pools, cooling towers and construction, where there is a risk of corrosion.

Electrical insulation

Fiberline's GRP profiles provide electrical insulation and minimise the complexity of earthing. This makes our profiles a future-proof choice where the costs of both installation and future inspections can be reduced considerably.

Easy to work with

GRP profiles are just as easy and fast to work with as timber. This means that solutions which incorporate our profiles can be installed easily on site or adjusted to fit existing components, such as piping systems, etc.

Thermally Insulating

Fiberline's fibreglass profiles have a significantly lower heat distribution gradient than steel and aluminium, enabling energy-efficient end products.

Minimal maintenance

Our GRP profiles have unrivalled durability and a long life, even in demanding conditions.

Sustainable

Fiberline's fibreglass profiles are produced using an energy-optimised process that takes the environment into consideration.
