Viability of FRP products in the Domain of Industries

As an entrepreneur, you must understand that the smooth functioning of any product depends on the material of which it is made. Traditional substances such as steel, aluminum have been used by most of the organizations for many years. However, in the recent times, the business firms are looking for better alternatives and one such exceptional replacement is fibre-reinforced plastic or FRP. Owing to its wide-ranging benefits, most of the companies are looking forward to use FRP as the chief building material. Cable Instrumentation and Push-button stands are two of the significant products in any business firm. A new entrepreneur must know the workings of these tools, in order to make their proper utilization.

What are Cable Trays?

Cable Trays are those products, which are used for the electrical wiring of buildings. An efficient cable tray system provides support to those insulated cables, which are used primarily for distributing power and communication purposes. Cable Trays could be divided into six types and they are as follows- Solid Bottom Cable Trays, Channel Cable Trays, Cable Ladders, Single Rail Cable Trays, Trough Cable Trays, and Wire Mesh Cable Trays. The FRP-made cable trays are known to be highly on-demand due to its distinguished features. These features are mentioned below in brief:

•    Custom-built fibreglass cable tray is known to be extremely light in weight, thus, could be installed easily.

•    These systems have a special cover, which is known to be UV-resistant.

•    Like all the other products made of FRP, these cable trays are also highly cost-effective as they could be maintained at a low cost.

•    FRP cable trays are made thick by mixing resin with additives. This keeps them protected from slots, cuts or holes.

•    They are known to be anti-corrosive; fire, heat and chemical resistant.

•    These cable trays maintain their exact structure even when subjected to extreme pressure.

What are Push-button stands?

Push-button stands, also known as Instrumentation stands, are used to provide support to variety of electrical instruments, switch racks and stations, in hazardous environmental conditions. These tools are highly personalized and could be designed in accordance to the desired configurations. The FRP-made push-button stands are known to be more appealing to customers due to their exceptional features. These definite characteristic traits are mentioned below in brief:

•    As they are made of pultruded materials, these stands are known to be extremely strong.

•    They do not require any maintenance costs and thus, are quite affordable.

•    Owing to its light weight and outstanding design, FRP push-button stands could be installed easily.

•    They do not get rust even when subjected to oxidized situations.

•    These stands could be built easily, thus, it saves time and money of an organization.

•    FRP instrumentation stands are congruent with all kinds of structures and bases.

Thus, gradually due to varied applications as well as gamut of benefits, FRP is becoming increasingly popular as a building material in the both industrial and commercial sectors.
