Project questions
GRP Handrails FAQs
Answers to the questions our technical sales team is most often asked.
What are GRP handrails used for?
GRP handrails are used to provide edge protection, pedestrian guidance and safer access around platforms, walkways, stairs, rail-side routes and industrial process areas.
Are GRP handrails suitable for rail and industrial sites?
Yes. The supplied project examples include rail-side and industrial applications. The final layout, fixing method, loading and site requirements should be considered for each installation.
Can GRP handrails be configured for stairs, ramps and platforms?
Yes. Modular GRP handrail components can be configured around changes of level, corners, access ramps, stairs and platform perimeters. Share your layout drawings and dimensions with Captrad.
Why specify GRP rather than steel handrails?
GRP can offer corrosion resistance, low weight and electrically non-conductive performance, making it a practical choice for many exposed, wet or industrial environments.
What information is needed for a GRP handrail quotation?
Please provide the route length, handrail layout, fixing surface, changes of direction or level, drawings, quantities, site environment and delivery requirements.
