SOME OF OUR VALUED CLIENTS
























FAQs
What makes FRP handrails better than traditional materials?
We’ve found that FRP handrails offer significant advantages over steel or aluminium alternatives. They’re naturally corrosion-resistant, so you won’t deal with rust or degradation even in harsh environments. They’re likewise much lighter, making installation easier and reducing structural load requirements. Plus, they’re non-conductive, which is vital for electrical safety in industrial settings.
How long do your FRP handrails typically last?
With over 30 years of experience in FRP technologies, we’ve seen our handrail systems perform exceptionally well for decades. The corrosion-resistant properties mean they’ll maintain their structural integrity and appearance much longer than traditional materials. In many cases, our clients see 20-30 years of reliable service with minimal maintenance requirements.
Do FRP handrails require special maintenance?
That’s one of the best features – they don’t! Our FRP handrails are designed to be low maintenance. Unlike steel handrails that need regular painting or coating to prevent rust, FRP systems maintain their properties without ongoing treatment. Occasional cleaning with standard detergents is typically all that’s needed to keep them looking and performing like new.
Can you provide anti-slip surfaces on FRP handrails?
Absolutely! We specialise in anti-slip FRP systems across our product range. Our handrails can be manufactured with textured surfaces or integrated anti-slip features to guarantee safe gripping in all weather conditions. This is particularly important for the water & wastewater, mining, and public infrastructure sectors we serve throughout Christchurch and beyond.
What's the installation process like for FRP handrails?
We’ve streamlined our installation process to be efficient and minimally disruptive. As FRP is lightweight, installation is typically faster than traditional materials and requires less heavy equipment. Our strong delivery and operational network across New Zealand guarantees we can support your project from initial consultation through to final installation, providing complete FRP solutions tailored to your specific requirements.
