1. Introduction to FRP Panels
FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) is a high-performance material made of glass fiber and resin. It has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, insulation, and easy processing. FRP plates are one of the common forms and are widely used in construction, transportation, chemical industry, environmental protection and other fields.
2. Main application fields

3. Core advantages of FRP Panels
✅ Lightweight and high strength: lighter than steel, but with strength close to or even exceeding that of ordinary metals.
✅ Corrosion resistance: resistant to acid, alkali, salt spray, solvents, etc., suitable for harsh environments.
✅ Insulation and heat insulation: non-conductive, good thermal insulation performance, suitable for electricity and building energy conservation.
✅ Easy to process and shape: can be cut, drilled, bent, and adapted to complex design requirements.
✅ Long service life: anti-aging, low maintenance cost.
