FRP-GRP Grating 500x500 from Mwanga Solutions is a high-performance, anti-slip, corrosion-resistant walkway system designed for solar rooftops, industrial floors, marine platforms, and utility corridors. Made from Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) and Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), this molded grating is engineered for long-term outdoor exposure and harsh environments across Kenya. It combines strength, safety, and minimal maintenance in a lightweight form.
Whether you're managing rooftop solar installations in Nairobi, walkways in Mombasa, or chemical facilities in Kisumu, this grating offers reliable access while preventing structural damage or injury due to slippage or corrosion.

Anti-Slip Gritted Surface: Ideal for wet, dusty, or sloped rooftops. Maintains grip in rain, humidity, or cleaning operations.
Non-Corrosive and Non-Conductive: Unaffected by salt air, industrial fumes, or UV rays. Safer than metal walkways near solar or electrical systems.
Modular & Lightweight: Each 500x500 panel weighs under 6 kg, making it easy to carry, trim, and mount during rooftop installation or retrofitting.
Long Lifespan: With zero rusting, flaking, or warping, this walkway lasts over a decade with minimal maintenance.
Environmentally Friendly: Non-toxic materials and recyclability make it ideal for green energy infrastructure.
| Application Area | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Solar Roof Walkways | Protects solar panels and technicians during inspection or cleaning |
| Food Processing Floors | Hygiene-safe and corrosion-resistant |
| Sewage & Water Treatment Plants | Resists chemical corrosion, algae growth, and water damage |
| Marine Docks and Jetties | Handles salty, wet conditions without rusting |
| Industrial Chemical Zones | Electrically safe and acid/alkali-resistant |
| Walkways in Schools & Hospitals | Slip-safe and maintenance-free surface with minimal noise |
Site Survey: Assess roof structure, frame type, access requirements, and solar array positioning.
Cut-to-Fit Planning: Panels can be trimmed on-site to match irregular layouts, obstacles, and corners.
Mounting Strategy: Choose from clamp-on, bolt-through, or adhesive-compatible fixings based on your roof type (CGI, tile, membrane).
Safety Features: Use edge guards, stainless steel corner brackets, or access ramps for safe movement.
Optional Cable Trays: Combine with FRP cable trays for clean, concealed wiring alongside the walkway.
| Roof Type | Recommended Mounting Method | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Corrugated Galvanized Iron | Clamp-on with SS brackets | No roof penetration required |
| Concrete Slabs | Bolt-down with masonry anchors | Ideal for flat solar installations |
| Tile Roofs | Raised brackets with spacers | Avoid direct load on tiles |
| Tented Steel Frames | Frame-mounted clips | Lightweight enough for thin-gauge roofs |

At Mwanga Solutions, we don’t just import products. We engineer them with Kenya’s environmental and structural conditions in mind. Our grating solutions offer unmatched reliability, tailored fitting options, and expert support. By sourcing from local and international certified manufacturers, we guarantee performance, compliance, and better pricing than other distributors.
Can this grating be installed without drilling holes in the roof?
Yes. Clamp-on mounting brackets are available for most roofing types to avoid damage and maintain waterproofing.
Is the surface safe for walking during rain or cleaning?
Absolutely. The gritted surface is designed to retain grip even in wet or dusty conditions.
Does it discolor or crack under the sun?
No. UV stabilizers are embedded in the resin system, maintaining appearance and structural strength.
How do I clean it?
Simply use a hose or pressure washer. Its surface resists mold, algae, and grime buildup.
Can I order panels in custom sizes?
Yes. We provide cut-to-length services and can accommodate special dimensions or fitting requirements.
