We’ve been having more and more conversations with customers lately about GRP grating vs traditional steel, and it’s clear there’s a growing awareness of alternative options.

GRP offers a number of practical advantages:

- It won’t corrode, making it ideal for harsh or exposed environments
- It’s significantly lighter than steel, which makes handling and installation easier
- It provides excellent slip resistance
- It requires very little ongoing maintenance
- And it can often be more cost effective over the full life of a project

There are also wider market factors at play. Ongoing tensions in the Middle East and the UK government’s evolving steel strategy are both expected to have an impact on steel availability and pricing, leading many to explore materials like GRP earlier in the process.

That said, there’s no one size fits all solution. At Elemy Ltd, we supply both open mesh steel grating and GRP grating, so whatever your project demands - whether it’s strength, weight, environment, or budget, we can help you find the right fit.

If you’re planning a project, it might be worth asking whether GRP could be an alternative option this time around.

Another GRP access ramp starting to take shape.

The first two images show the supporting structure, built entirely from GRP - something that often surprises people who expect to see traditional steelwork. The final image shows the ramp with anti-slip solid top grating fitted, creating a safe and durable walking surface.

You’ll also notice the yellow flooring sections, which are used to clearly highlight changes in level and improve visibility underfoot - an important safety feature for pedestrian access. The next step is the DDA compliant handrail and then site installation!

Open mesh steel flooring isn’t just for heavy industrial sites…

This project shows our grating being used as access to a slide within a children's playground. A great example of how the same materials can be used in a completely different setting!

Whether you need something for a demanding industrial environment or a public space like this, the goal is always the same: safe, durable, and reliable access.

At Elemy Ltd, we supply open mesh steel flooring for all kinds of applications, and every job is backed by our BS EN 1090 Ex*****on Class 2 and ISO 9001 certification. We also understand how critical project deadlines can be, so we focus on clear communication and reliable customer service to keep everything running smoothly from order to delivery. In simple terms, we make sure the quality’s right and it turns up when it should.

Whatever your requirement, we’re here to help make it happen - get in touch: [email protected] // 01642 480844

At first glance, many people would assume this structure is fabricated from steel sections. Infact aside from the bolts, this entire supporting frame is constructed from GRP.

This photo shows the supporting structure of an access ramp, demonstrating just how versatile GRP can be for structural access solutions.

GRP offers a range of advantages that make it an excellent alternative to steel in many environments (corrosion resistant, lightweight but strong, low maintenance). Despite these benefits, many people still underestimate what GRP can achieve structurally. Projects like this highlight how it can be used to create robust, engineered access platforms and ramp systems without relying on traditional steelwork.

At Elemy Ltd, we design and supply bespoke GRP access structures, helping clients find the most effective material for their environment and application.

If you’re considering access platforms, walkways, or ramps, GRP could be a cost effective solution worth considering.

⭐ Project Spotlight: GRP Safety Pit Covers - Rail Manufacturing Facility ⭐

Elemy were asked to provide a safe and practical pit cover solution for a local rail manufacturing facility. After carrying out a site survey, Elemy designed, fabricated and supplied a hybrid GRP and steel system to suit the application.

Due to limited bearing for grating supports, steel support beams were required to provide the necessary structural stability. On top of this, we installed GRP grating pit covers - strong and durable enough for walkway loading, yet lightweight enough to be safely lifted for access when required.

In rail and industrial environments, high visibility colours like yellow are commonly used to improve awareness, guide pedestrian movement, and enhance overall site safety.

Another key advantage is that GRP can be easily modified without hot works on site, making it far simpler to accommodate future changes to the facility layout

The result is a safe, durable and practical access solution. If you’re working on a similar project and need a solution that balances steel and GRP effectively, we’re always happy to advise: [email protected] // 01642 480844

We’re proud to announce that Elemy Ltd as part of the Elemy Group has achieved an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) covering our GRP Grating products.

As an industry leader in GRP Grating, we believe it’s important not only to supply high performance products, but to provide full transparency around their environmental impact. Achieving this EPD is a reflection of that commitment.

This milestone represents over 12 months of detailed work behind the scenes, including:
• Completion of the relevant Product Category Rules (PCR)
• A full Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) - from raw material energy source through to manufacturing
• Independent third party verification and accreditation

This EPD is more than just an ‘off the shelf’ certificate - it’s a transparent, data driven assessment of environmental impact. It provides our customers with independently verified information to support sustainable design, procurement, and compliance with environmental standards.
For us, the process has also reinforced something important: the need to have complete visibility and understanding of our products, our manufacturing operations, and our supply chain at every stage, from raw material sourcing through to finished production.

We would also like to thank Decerna for their guidance and support throughout the entire process. Sustainability, transparency, and accountability are becoming essential in construction and infrastructure projects and Elemy Group are committed to staying at the forefront of that progress.

If you’d like to learn more about our EPD certified GRP grating solutions, our team would be happy to talk.

A simple install but a great example of what GRP does best.

This step up provides access into a site cabin and is manufactured entirely from GRP, from the stringers right through to the handrails.

It’s exactly the kind of application where GRP just makes sense: No rust. No rot. No ongoing maintenance. Just a durable, lightweight, and non-conductive access solution built to handle tough environments (and whatever the Great British weather throws at us..!)

We work with GRP every day, so we understand how to design it properly both to meet standards and to last. Whether it’s a small step unit like this or a full platform system the principle is the same: safe, durable access built the right way.

If you’re looking at industrial access and wondering whether GRP is the right option, please get in touch and let us help: [email protected] // 01642 480844

Pedestrian footbridges can be a major slip risk, especially in wet conditions. By installing anti slip tread covers, we’ve improved grip underfoot and made this walkway safer for daily use without the need for a full replacement.

A simple, cost effective retrofit that shows how targeted upgrades can significantly improve access safety.

🔙 Throwback Thursday 🔙

A look back at one of our projects from last year 👇 We supplied 35m long twin GRP walkways, along with handrails, access stairs and safety gates, for a new metro depot and control centre in Wales.

GRP is a solid choice for rail depots because it’s:
✔️ Corrosion resistant
✔️ Non-conductive
✔️ Strong but lightweight
✔️ Built to last with minimal maintenance (reducing future downtime!)

Projects like this are a great example of what Elemy Group can deliver - practical, durable access solutions designed for real rail environments.
