Specifying FRP in corrosive environments

Corrosion resistance depends on the complete system, exposure and detail—not a generic material label.

01

Characterise exposure

Identify chemicals, concentrations, temperature, immersion or splash conditions, ultraviolet exposure, cleaning processes and expected service conditions.

02

Review the system

Resin selection, surface protection, cut edges, fixings, supports, drainage and connections can all influence performance. Obtain project-specific technical confirmation.

03

Plan inspection

Define access, inspection triggers and maintenance information in proportion to consequence and service conditions. Record changes that could alter the original design basis.
