GRP Mini Mesh Anti-Slip Grating
GRP Mini Mesh Anti-Slip Grating is a reliable and cost-effective alternative to traditional decking materials such as timber, mild steel, and stainless steel. Manufactured from glass-reinforced plastic, it delivers exceptional slip resistance through gritted and concave surface finishes, providing superior traction even in wet, icy, or oily conditions.
Our GRP mini mesh grating is available in a range of resin systems, making it suitable for demanding environments. It is widely used in offshore and industrial settings where fire resistance, low smoke emission, and chemical resistance are essential, as well as in areas exposed to highly corrosive substances.
Available in both gritted and concave finishes, mini mesh GRP panels provide consistent, long-lasting slip resistance. This ensures safe pedestrian access across a wide range of applications, from marinas and pontoons to industrial walkways, access platforms, and service areas.

Why Choose Mini Mesh Grating?
Mini mesh GRP grating is designed for applications where enhanced safety, durability, and slip resistance are essential. Featuring a 12mm x 12mm internal mesh and 20mm x 20mm external mesh, it prevents objects larger than 13mm from falling through and is fully compliant with the European 15mm ball test.
Similar to our Standard GRP Grating and GRP Solid Top Grating, mini mesh panels provide a high-strength, lightweight, and durable solution for walkways, platforms, gullies, and drainage covers.
With a design life of 50+ years, exceptional chemical resistance, and a non-slip gritted surface, mini mesh grating is a reliable replacement for worn or traditional decking materials in demanding marine and industrial environments.
- Pontoons (replacement for worn or rotten decking)
- Non-slip pontoon surfaces (wet / icy conditions)
- Marinas
- Jetties
- Finger pontoons
- Bridges
- Balconies
- Walkways
- Disabled access ramps
- Breakwaters

Anti-Slip Pontoon Decking
Mini mesh pontoon decking features an embedded, gritted anti-slip surface and has been tested to BS standards, delivering excellent slip resistance in wet, oily, and icy conditions. It provides long-lasting protection against heavy wear and is an ideal replacement for traditional timber decking in marina and pontoon environments.
GRP mini mesh grating uses a 12mm x 12mm mesh size, preventing objects larger than 13mm from falling through and fully complying with the European 15mm ball test requirement.
The smaller mesh openings allow smooth movement for wheelchairs, prams, and delivery trolleys, while still enabling sunlight to pass through to support marine plant life and maintain a healthy ecological marine system.
Durable, Safe & Lightweight GRP Decking Solutions
Designed to meet both performance and aesthetic requirements, mini mesh GRP decking delivers exceptional levels of safety in demanding environments. Fibreglass grating provides reliable slip resistance even in freezing conditions, high seas, and areas exposed to oil, while remaining algae resistant and maintenance free.
As one of the safest and most cost-effective decking solutions available, GRP mini mesh grating offers long-term performance without the need for ongoing treatment or replacement.
The product is also available in Phenolic resin, offering excellent fire-retardant properties. It meets BS476 Part 7 Class 0 and London Underground Section 12 standards for low smoke and low toxicity applications, making it suitable for tunnel and enclosed environments.
