GRP Handrails & Railings

Non-conductive, and corrosion-resistant safety handrail systems engineered for industrial and public environments.

GRP Handrails provide an economical barrier solution in corrosive atmospheres. Various systems are available depending on the situation, but all are designed and tested to the standard specifications for metal handrails & balustrades. The adaptability of the multiple systems allows for rapid installations.

Our systems provide a lightweight and cost-effective barrier solution for industrial, marine, and public access applications — fully compliant with British and European safety standards.

Why Choose GRP Handrails?

GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) is the modern alternative to steel or aluminium handrails, offering superior corrosion resistance and low maintenance performance.

✔ **Lightweight yet strong** – easy to handle and install, while meeting safety specifications

✔ **Electrically non-conductive** – safe for environments near live electrical equipment

✔ **Very low thermal conductivity** – safe to touch in extreme temperatures

✔ **Corrosion-resistant** – won’t rust, chip, or degrade in harsh weather or marine conditions

✔ **Low maintenance** – no painting, coating, or costly upkeep required

PJNC LIMITED’s GRP handrails deliver long service life in challenging conditions while maintaining excellent appearance and compliance.
