Here at National Grating we specialize in providing FRP Solutions to a wide variety of applications. Currently, we are seeing a high demand for FRP grating in the construction of Rooftop Walkways.

National Grating FRP grating offers safety, durability, and ease of installation for rooftop walkways.  Rooftop walkways are common in industrial applications to prevent damage to the roof by foot traffic, to increase safety, to create predetermined routes to areas of importance and for OSHA requirements.

W.S. Safety Technologies

Tech-Walk Rooftop Safety System from W.S Safety utilizes Molded FRP Grating from National Grating. It provides a safe walking surface even in snowy conditions because of its anti-slip finish and its ability to simply let the snow and rain fall right through the grating.

National Grating works closely with W.S. Safety Technologies who offers a number of services, making it unique in the field of fall protection and confined space. Whether it is sales and installation of off-the-shelf components or the design of complex custom fall protection systems, W.S. Safety Technologies can provide a turn-key solution to most fall protection and confined space applications.

W.S. Safety utilizes FRP Solutions from National Grating to offer their customers a cutting-edge, non-penetrating walkway solution designed to offer unparalleled safety and functionality for rooftops. Crafted with precision, it boasts an anti-slip walkway surface that ensures secure footing in any weather condition.

At the heart of W.S. Safety solutions are the ingeniously engineered counterweighted bases, strategically placed to securely anchor the grating to the rooftop. This ingenious design not only guarantees stability but also elevates the walkway surface, facilitating optimal water and snow drainage, as well as promoting crucial air circulation underneath.

TechGuard RoofWalk from W.S. Safety is a non-penetrating rooftop walkway system with numerous advantages over conventional paver stone walkways.

Advantages include:

&#; Provides a non-slip surface to help prevent trips and falls.

&#; Elevated surface allows safe access over trip hazards as well as for easier snow removal.

&#; Eliminates wind uplift of walkway due to high quality anchoring systems and breathability of FRP Grating.

&#; Elevated surface allows easy identification of walkway in adverse conditions.

National Grating Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP) grating is an excellent choice for rooftop walkways due to several advantages:

Non-Penetrating: FRP grating can be installed without penetrating the roof surface, ensuring the integrity of the roof membrane and preventing leaks.

Slip Resistance: The open mesh design of FRP grating provides slip resistance, even in wet or slick conditions. This is crucial for safe rooftop access.

Lightweight: FRP grating is lightweight, making it easy to handle during installation and maintenance and results in less strain on the roof structure.

Long Service Life: FRP materials are durable and resistant to corrosion, ensuring a long lifespan even in outdoor environments.

Ergonomic Work Surface: When elevated using pedestals, FRP grating creates a slip-resistant, ergonomic &#;work mat.&#; This design allows chips and fluids to fall below the standing surface, reducing slip and fall hazards. It&#;s perfect for applications like lathes or mills, providing a safe and portable workstation.

High Visibility: In low light or inclement weather high visibility yellow grating provides a highly visible and safe walking surface solution.
