FRP Honeycomb Panels
TOPBOND FRP honeycomb panel, also called GRP honeycomb panel is an innovative solution for lightweight and durable structures.
The FRP/GRP honeycomb panel is composed of two gel coated fiberglass sheets on top and bottom and a PP plastic honeycomb in between. Its reinforced plastic layers, made of glass-reinforced plastic (GRP), offer a protective and aesthetically pleasing surface that is highly resistant to environmental factors, corrosion, and UV damage.
TOPBOND FRP/GRP honeycomb panel is a popular material for ship and vessel buildings as well as vehicle body buildings.
Features of FRP/GRP Honeycomb Panels
- LIGHTWEIGHT
The honeycomb structure provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, making GRP honeycomb panels an ideal alternative to heavier materials such as steel or solid wood. - HIGH STRENGTH
The honeycomb structure nad glass fiber surface sheet ensures high tensile strength, enabling the panels to withstand constant or heavy loads without denting or warping. - STABILITY
FRP composite panels will not be brittle at ultra-low temperatures, will not deform at high temperatures, and can prevent heat transfer. - REPLACEMENT OF TRADITIONAL MATERIAL
It can replace color steel plates, aluminum plates, stainless steel plates, etc., and overcome the shortcomings of traditional products such as rust, corrosion, heat conduction, easy dent deformation, not easy to clean, poor durability, easy wear, and can not adapt to harsh environments. - GEL COATED SURFACE
The fiberglass skin has undergone special surface treatment, and has the characteristics of high self-cleaning, light, ultraviolet resistance, and anti-static. - EASY CUSTOMIZATION
Panels can be quickly modified to meet specific customer requirements, including size, thickness, color, and surface finish.
Structure of FRP/GRP Honeycomb Panels
- The FRP/GRP honeycomb composite panel consists of three parts.
- The top layer is fiberglass sheet which is made of alkali-free glass fiber mat, reinforced polyester resin, gel and additives. The fiberglass sheet is gel coated on the surface to form a smooth appearance.
- Inside core material is PP honeycomb. PP honeycomb core is a new structural material processed from polypropylene according to the bionic principle of honeycomb.
- Back layer is also gel coated FRP sheet.
- Surface Finish: We supply FRP honeycomb panel with various surface finish. The FRP skin sheet can be gel coated in matt or in glossy finish. The FRP sheet can also be embossed to create an non-slip surface. Diamond and checkered surface is available at your request.
- Besides, the FRP skin sheet can be made in different colors, although white is the most commonly used color, black, grey, yellow and any other colors can be customized.
