High technology in
FRP products

FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) is an innovative material produced through the Filament Winding process, a technique used to produce hollow and lightweight components, but with high strength. Products made using this technology are usually those with a constant cross section, such as pipes. The filaments are impregnated or coated with thermosetting resin, wound tightly around a mandrel and allowed to cure to a hard layer. The technique has the ability to produce low-weight, high-rigidity components. In order to achieve the desired low mass and low inertia in the finished article, the mandrel is removed after the resin has hardened so that the product achieves its final hollow condition.
