Gratewalk
Plastic in Johannesburg

Gratewalk is a supplier of Fibreglass Grating and Accessories, located in Cape Town, South Africa.

Gratewalk trades under the name of PMR Agencies cc which was established in 1996 to supply the needs of a growing market for a non corrosive, high strength and light weight product. The production, inspection and testing of our products are therefore managed and controlled in compliance with the ISO 9001:2008. Together with our prompt service, this has allowed us to become one of the top suppliers of fibreglass grating in South Africa. It is easy to install, non magnetic and can act as a thermal insulator. The Bottom Clip is used to secure the grating to the support where it is not possible to drill a hole in the angle iron. Fibreglass Grating is a very versatile product and can be used for various applications and in various environments. We have listed possible applications and uses below. Our fibreglass hand railing, stanchions and fitting are manfactured using isophthalic polyester resin resulting in a fire resistant product which is light weight and easy to install. By using this resin the product is corrosion resistant in the marine and most chemical conditions. In addition to being corrrosion resistant, it is a high strength maintenance free product and so puts safety first. It is also resistant to electrical conductivity making it safe to use in all electrical applications. It is maintenance free, but should the grating be damaged due to an accident, it is easy to repair. Fibreglass moulded grating provides excellect corrosion resistance as well as a high tensile strength. When a weight is applied to the grating bars, the load is transferred to the adjoining bars assisting in the the load distribution and hence giving it a very high strength. Due to fibreglass being corrosion resistant, it has an indefinite life span. During the moulding process, a concave meniscus is created on the surface. This, together with the spacing between the between bars, as well as quartz stone grit surface, gives it extremely good traction. In addition to the non-slip surface, the quartz stone protects the surface from damage caused by falling objects. This surface is also extremely effective in icy conditions. Fibreglass grating will deflect with impact from a relitavely heavy weight and return to its orriginal position, unlike metal grating which may remain bent under the same impact.
