GRP - Glass Reinforced Plastic
FiberFlo is a brand focused on resilient composite pipeline systems, manufactured by Atagor. It finds use in power engineering as well as in many other industries. GRP – Glass Reinforced Plastic (also GFK – Glasfaserverkstärkten Kunststoffen) is a compound material characterised by complete corrosion resistance and robust mechanical strength.
In manufacturing process we use the most modern CNC winders, that allow us to use glass fiber threads, ensuring excellent durability and low weight of the final product. Our goal is to provide technical support alongside the whole investment or repair process, and to come up with the most effective solutions, suited to particular needs of our clients.

self-compensation at cross-winding up to 0.2%
resistant to high and low temperatures
(up to 150°C)
chemical resistance
to most gases and liquids, corrosion resistance
long service life
- 20 to 50 years
maintenance-free
(fix & forget)
