Headquartered in Visakhapatnam
Leading the Composite Revolution Across Coastal & Industrial Andhra Pradesh
FRP Marine & Industrial Solutions is a specialized composite engineering and fabrication enterprise based in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. We solve the persistent, multi-crore problem of material degradation caused by extreme coastal salinity, industrial acids, chemical effluents, and heavy mechanical wear.
In heavy industrial hubs like Pharma City Parawada, Autonagar, Vizag Steel Plant corridor, Kakinada Port, and Krishnapatnam, conventional mild steel and concrete structures suffer rapid electrochemical corrosion, necessitating costly maintenance shutdowns and dangerous structural failures.
Our engineering facility utilizes specialized resin matrices (including Bisphenol-A, Epoxy Novolac Vinyl Ester, and pure Isophthalic systems) reinforced with multi-axial woven rovings, chopped strand mats, and synthetic barrier veils to deliver monolithic equipment with verified Barcol hardness and decades of leak-free service life.

Technical Knowledge
Frequently Asked Engineering Questions
Answers to common technical, design, and commercial questions regarding FRP composite solutions.
FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) is an advanced composite material combining high-strength continuous glass fiber reinforcements with a thermoset polymer resin matrix. Mechanically, FRP offers tensile strength comparable to structural mild steel (up to 300 MPa) while possessing a density of only 1.6 to 1.9 g/cm³ (approximately 70% lighter than steel). Unlike metals, FRP is completely immune to electrochemical corrosion, does not pit in saltwater or acids, and requires zero sandblasting or repainting over its 25+ year design life.
When engineered with Epoxy Novolac Vinyl Ester or Bisphenol resin barriers, our FRP chemical tanks safely contain concentrated Hydrochloric Acid (HCl up to 37%), Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4 up to 70%), Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH up to 50%), Sodium Hypochlorite, ferric chloride, alum, and high-salinity brine at operating temperatures up to 105°C–120°C. For extreme solvents, dual-laminate systems (PP/FRP or PVDF/FRP) provide complete containment integrity.
Molded FRP Gratings feature an interwoven continuous glass mesh wetted out in a heated compression mould, giving them equal bi-directional load bearing strength in both directions. They can be cut around pipes or complex equipment on-site without losing structural integrity. Pultruded FRP Gratings are manufactured with aligned continuous rovings pulled through a die, providing much higher unidirectional longitudinal stiffness, making them ideal for long-span walkways where intermediate steel supports are minimized.
Every composite laminate fabricated at our Visakhapatnam facility undergoes rigorous quality assurance testing: Barcol Hardness Testing (ASTM D2583) to ensure full polymer cross-linking (achieving 85–90% of resin manufacturer specifications), Glass Content Burn-Off Testing (ASTM D2584) to verify reinforcement ratios, High-Voltage Spark Testing (ASTM D5162) to verify 100% pinhole-free barrier continuity, and full hydrostatic static head testing for tanks and piping.
Yes. Custom fabrication is our primary specialty. We engineer precision male/female mould tooling from 2D/3D CAD models, site physical dimensions, or direct reverse-engineering from failing metallic machine guards, pump shrouds, clarifier weirs, or boat hulls.
Yes. Our skilled composite technician crew provides on-site field lamination, flanged joint connection, and in-situ chemical relining of corroded concrete neutralizing sumps, clarifiers, and failing steel vessels across all districts in Andhra Pradesh.
