“Cargill was looking for a product to use in their facility for walkways and platforms that had a better overall life cycle cost and the ability to withstand the highly corrosive conditions encountered at the plant.”
“Fibergrate’s fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) products were selected by Cargill. Over a period of two years, Fibergrate replaced the plant’s steel structures with fiberglass systems. The metal grating walkways in the dryer building, elevator structure, and caustic storage area were all updated using Fibergrate’s Vi-Corr® molded grating. In addition, Vi-Corr® molded grating was also installed in the loading platforms. Dynarail® FRP handrails and Dynaform® FRP structural support components were also engineered for installation in the caustic storage area, while slip-resistant Fibertred® stair panels replaced metal stairways in the load-out area. Cargill continues to use Fibergrate products, replacing items as needed in other areas of the plant. Based on the quality of Fibergrate’s FRP products, Cargill has a worry-free solution to the corrosive effects of its saltwater products on plant walkways and stairs.”
