What is GRP roofing?

GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) roofing is made from a polyester resin, which is reinforced by chopped strand mat glass fibres to form a GRP laminate. Often referred to as fibreglass roofing, it’s a durable, lightweight, flexible, fully reinforced and waterproof material capable of being moulded to any shape. Invented by Russel Games in 1938, it was originally used on water containers and boats. Today, it is one of the most popular choices in the construction industry for both new properties and the refurbishment of existing roofing systems.

GRP Design

The design of a GRP roofing system

Typically speaking, GRP roofing systems are a three-part product with liquid roof resin or reinforced matting. A further coat of resin is added with edge trims and a UV coating to finish off. On occasion, an additional traction coat is added for anti-slip purposes. 

GRP/Fibreglass is a highly rigid board, meaning that it is important a GRP systems is fixed while leaving gaps to the side in the instance of timber swelling from moisture exposure. Overall, GRP is an excellent solution for roofing with endless benefits and capabilities.
