Vulcan supplies GRP (Glassfibre Reinforced Plastic), which consists of a matrix of polyester resin reinforced with filaments of glass fibre. The characteristics of GRP vary depending on the glass and resin type used in manufacture. By combining GRP with other materials it can be suited to many different applications.
