GRP Mini Mesh Anti-Slip Grating
GRP Mini Mesh Anti-Slip Grating is a high-performance decking solution engineered for marine, offshore and industrial environments. Manufactured from glass-reinforced plastic (GRP), it provides exceptional slip resistance, corrosion protection and long-term durability — even in wet, icy or chemically exposed conditions.
Designed as a safer and more cost-effective alternative to timber, mild steel and stainless steel, mini mesh GRP decking eliminates the risk of rot, rust and ongoing maintenance while delivering reliable pedestrian safety.
Available in gritted or concave surface finishes, our mini mesh panels provide consistent traction across marinas, pontoons, jetties, walkways and access platforms. Multiple resin systems are available to meet project-specific fire performance, smoke emission and chemical resistance requirements.
Ideal for:
- Marina and pontoon decking
- Offshore access walkways
- Industrial service platforms
- Bridges and access ramps
- Coastal and corrosive environments

Why Choose Mini Mesh Grating?
Mini mesh GRP grating is engineered for environments where enhanced pedestrian safety is essential. With a 12mm × 12mm internal mesh and 20mm × 20mm external mesh configuration, it prevents objects larger than 13mm from falling through and complies with the European 15mm ball test.
Unlike standard open mesh grating, the reduced aperture design provides improved underfoot comfort and stability, making it ideal for marinas, pontoons, public walkways and access ramps.
Mini mesh panels deliver long-term structural performance while remaining lightweight and easy to install — offering a safer, low-maintenance alternative to timber and metal decking systems in demanding marine and industrial settings.
Ideal Applications:
- Marina and pontoon decking
- Jetties and finger pontoons
- Bridges and access ramps
- Disabled access walkways
- Coastal and corrosive environments
Available Thickness Options
Anti-Slip Pontoon Decking
Mini mesh GRP decking is engineered for long-term performance in marina and pontoon environments, where constant exposure to water, salt spray and heavy pedestrian traffic demands reliable safety and durability.
Designed for public access and commercial marine settings, it delivers consistent slip resistance while eliminating the maintenance issues associated with traditional timber or steel decking.
Marine-Specific Performance
- Embedded anti-slip grit for wet and tidal conditions
- Resistant to saltwater corrosion and algae build-up
- Will not rot, swell or degrade over time
Suitable for high-traffic marina walkways and access pontoons
Mini mesh panels provide a stable, heel-safe surface for pedestrians, wheelchairs and light equipment, making them ideal for public-access marinas, jetties and coastal infrastructure.
With no need for sealing, painting or ongoing treatment, GRP mini mesh decking offers a long-term, low-maintenance solution for demanding marine environments.
Technical Performance & Product Options
Mini mesh GRP decking is engineered for structural reliability in demanding marine and industrial environments. Its composite construction delivers high strength-to-weight performance while maintaining long-term durability in wet, corrosive and high-traffic conditions.
Slip resistance is maintained even in freezing temperatures, heavy spray zones and oil-exposed areas, making it suitable for public-access and industrial installations alike.
Fire & Compliance Options
For projects requiring enhanced fire performance, mini mesh grating is available in phenolic resin.
This option achieves:
- BS476 Part 7 Class 0
- London Underground Section 12 compliance (low smoke / low toxicity)
Suitable for enclosed environments, tunnels and transport infrastructure.
