Kenya's expanding rooftop solar sector demands safe and resilient access systems. The FRP rooftop catwalk system offers a solid foundation for this need. While metal walkways corrode and concrete solutions are too heavy, FRP grating provides the perfect balance between strength and weight. Its thermosetting resin structure doesn't absorb moisture, making it excellent for long rainy seasons and damp highlands.
This walkway system also simplifies compliance with Kenya's Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). By improving rooftop accessibility and reducing slip hazards, your facility enhances employee safety and reduces insurance risks. It also protects expensive infrastructure—like solar arrays and ventilation units—from foot traffic damage during inspections or maintenance.
Unlike traditional steel walkways, FRP options eliminate the risk of rust, electrical conductivity, and grounding problems. With proven performance in Kenya Power, KENGEN, and other energy sector projects, FRP catwalks are quickly becoming the standard choice for long-term rooftop safety in Kenya’s renewable energy and industrial sectors.
