FRP kick plate Profiles

FRP Kick Plate Profiles, also referred to as FRP toe plates, are a specialized form of fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) profiles, designed to improve safety, resist corrosion, and offer lasting performance in hazardous or exposed work environments. These profiles are manufactured through an advanced pultrusion process, ensuring uniformity, precision, and high structural strength across their length. Commonly installed on platforms, walkways, stairs, and equipment enclosures, FRP kick plates provide an essential protective barrier to prevent tools or debris from falling.

Our FRP Kick Plate Profiles are engineered fiberglass reinforced polymer components designed to provide superior edge protection on elevated walkways, platforms, and hazardous work areas. Manufactured through precision pultrusion, these structural FRP profiles deliver unmatched corrosion resistance and safety performance compared to traditional metal alternatives.
