What is Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP)?
Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic is most often referred to simply as “fiberglass” in practice (as in fiberglass tanks, fiberglass grating, fiberglass structural shapes, etc.) Used in this context “fiberglass” is a composite consisting of a plastic resin matrix reinforced by embedded glass fibers. The strength of a fiberglass part is determined primarily by the type, orientation, quantity, and location of the glass fibers within the part.
