IP-GRP404020 Enclosure | Products We're Exhibiting

IP Enclosures UK Stand: 5/K120
GRP wall-mounted enclosures are engineered for use in corrosive and chemically aggressive environments. Designed to house electrical switch and control gear, these enclosures offer superior resistance in marine, industrial, and chemical processing environments.

Benefits of GRP
SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) is a composite of unsaturated polyester resin reinforced with glass fibre (12-50 mm long) as well as mineral filler and other additives. In addition to basic components such as polyester resin, fibre-glass and filler, SMC contains various additives in the form of thickeners, anti-adhesive agents and flame retardants.
