METAR Brand GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) Cable Trays are engineered to provide superior performance in cable management systems, especially in environments where corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, and lightweight construction are paramount. These trays offer a reliable solution for organizing and protecting cables across various industrial and commercial applications.
Key Features:
Corrosion Resistance: GRP cable trays are inherently resistant to moisture, chemicals, and corrosive environments, making them ideal for outdoor and industrial use.
Electrical Insulation: Being non-conductive, these trays provide excellent electrical insulation, enhancing safety by reducing the risk of electrical hazards.
Lightweight and Durable: With a high strength-to-weight ratio, GRP trays are easy to handle and install without compromising on structural integrity.
UV and Fire Resistance: Designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight and high temperatures, ensuring longevity and performance in challenging conditions.
Low Maintenance: The non-corrosive nature of GRP means these trays require minimal upkeep, reducing long-term maintenance costs.
Applications for GRP Cable Tray:
METAR GRP Cable Trays are suitable for a wide range of applications, including:
Industrial Facilities: Power plants, chemical processing units, and manufacturing facilities where exposure to harsh chemicals and environments is common.
Commercial Buildings: Offices, shopping centers, and hospitals that require organized and safe cable management systems.
Infrastructure Projects: Bridges, tunnels, and transportation systems where durability and resistance to environmental factors are crucial.
Marine and Offshore Installations: Environments exposed to saltwater and humidity, such as offshore platforms and ships.
Renewable Energy Projects: Solar farms and wind energy installations that demand reliable and long-lasting cable support systems.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) Cable Trays are made from a composite material combining fibreglass and resin, offering excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and non-conductivity.
Unlike metal trays, GRP trays do not corrode, are lightweight, electrically non-conductive, and require minimal maintenance. They are also easier to handle and install due to their reduced weight.
Yes, GRP trays are available with fire-retardant properties and comply with industry standards for fire safety, making them suitable for critical installations.
Standard widths range from 100 mm to 1200 mm, with heights typically between 100 mm to 150 mm. Custom sizes can also be provided based on project requirements.
GRP trays offer a long service life — often exceeding 20 years — even in aggressive and corrosive environments, significantly reducing lifecycle costs.
