GRP Bund Lining
Get in TouchAt Chemical Bund Lining, we offer GRP bund lining to provide robust and reliable protection against chemical leaks and spills. Our lining solutions use glass-reinforced plastic to create a durable, corrosion-resistant barrier that safeguards the environment and infrastructure from hazardous substances.
Serving the area, our services are suitable for a range of industries needing secure chemical storage solutions.
How Much Does GRP Bund Lining Cost?
GRP bund lining typically costs between £100 and £150 per square metre. The price can vary depending on the size of the area to be lined, the complexity of the installation, and any additional requirements such as repairs or preparation work.
Factors like the thickness of the GRP laminate, typically ranging from 2 to 6 millimetres, can also influence pricing. We employ materials compliant with BS 4994 standards to meet industry-specific chemical resistance requirements.
Customisation involves precise surface preparation, including sandblasting to remove contaminants and ensure optimal adhesion. We use specialised tools such as pneumatic rollers in areas with intricate configurations to ensure uniform coverage.
Our team ensures that the final product not only meets durability standards but also complies with environmental regulations, safeguarding against hazardous chemical leaks. Contact us today to discuss your specific needs and obtain a detailed quote tailored to your project.
What Are the Benefits of GRP Bund Lining?
GRP bund lining offers multiple benefits, protecting facilities and the environment. Widely used in chemical processing plants and storage facilities, its advantages include:
Corrosion Resistance: Glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) resists chemical attack, making it ideal for environments exposed to acids, alkalis, and solvents.
Durability: Provides long-lasting protection, with a lifespan typically exceeding 20 years, and withstands harsh operational conditions without deterioration.
Seamless Application: Custom-fitted to eliminate weak points, GRP bund linings are applied using methods such as hand lay-up and spray-up to ensure a uniform, impervious barrier that conforms to complex shapes and structures.
Easy Maintenance: Simple to clean and maintain, as GRP surfaces do not harbour deposits, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
With compliance to standards like ISO 9001, investing in GRP bund lining ensures both safety and cost-effectiveness for any facility handling chemicals, enhancing environmental safeguards.
How Long Does GRP Bund Lining Take?
The installation of GRP bund lining normally takes between two to four days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Factors such as the substrate condition and existing surface can affect the timescale.
For example, concrete substrates may require additional surface preparation to ensure proper adhesion. This does not include curing time, which can take an additional one to two days to ensure optimal adhesion and performance.
The curing process involves allowing the resin to fully harden, which is crucial to achieving the necessary chemical resistance and durability. During the installation, specialised equipment such as airless spray guns and rollers may be used for applying the resin and fibreglass layers.
We adhere to industry standards such as BS EN 13501 for fire resistance, ensuring safety and compliance for your facility. Our team works efficiently to minimise downtime, allowing operations to resume swiftly.
