Water treatment and seawater desalination projects suffer from severe corrosion caused by chemical wastewater and saltwater. Traditional metal materials tend to rust easily, whereas cement structures are heavy and difficult to install. For this reason, FRP fiberglass composite materials are gaining rising popularity among engineering contractors worldwide.

FRP gratings, drainage pipes and pultruded profiles are widely applied in wastewater treatment plants, chemical sewage pools and seawater desalination facilities. These composite materials feature excellent resistance against acid, alkali and salt erosion. They are lightweight, simple to transport and install, and barely require anti-rust maintenance after installation.

In recent years, projects across Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa have seen sharp growth in procurement of FRP products. Engineering buyers attach great importance to product stability, custom-size service and reliable mass supply capability. Industry experts forecast that demand for anti-corrosion FRP composite materials will continue to rise in the coming years, especially within municipal environmental protection and industrial anti-corrosion engineering sectors.
