Vital at 2010
Vitagrid grating and hand railing has been used extensively in a number of stadiums around the country with the upcoming 2010 soccer events calendar. The most scenic being the new Cape Town stadium in Greenpoint as shown.
Vitaglass FRP range of gratings
Vital have launched their superior quality Vitaglass FRP range of gratings, handrails and sections. The strong glass reinforcing layers give the product it's resilient strength and performance characteristics. A variety of sizes and depths in various fire-retardant UV resistant and acid resisting materials are available. Our new minimesh gratings for public access areas in FRP and steel gratings are also available. A example walkway of a jetty using FRP minimesh is shown. This product can be used in fire-escape walkways and stairs, shopping centres and any application where the apertures are required to be small to reduce the passage of high heels or other objects. The top of the product is able to be treated with a resilient grit which forms an excellent non-slip surface.
