Sizes: No matter what size your project is, we can supply your needs. Everything that we do is totally bespoke; we can therefore accommodate any size, configuration, and shape of cabinet enclosure such as a small metering cabinet to larger GRP Kiosks and bespoke enclosures. We also have a standard range of cabinets which we can turn around efficiently.
We can offer ventilation if required, this is achieved through Ventilation Grills, these can be manufactured from Galvanised Steel or Stainless Steel and can be positioned to suit, we can also offer Weatherproof Cowls over the Vents.
Internal walls can be lined with either a Surface treated Ply Board or an Encapsulated Board, this is a great aid when the necessity to mount equipment internally arises, you can just offer your equipment up on the internal wall and fix directly into the Ply lining.
With our GRP Enclosures being custom made this allows the freedom to tailor it for your specific application. We can provide provide Autocad Drawings once an order has been placed and this will help with your operations manual and understand if aything needs amending before production.
GRP enclosures (Glass Reinforced Plastic enclosures) are widely used across industries to provide safe, durable housing for sensitive equipment. In a working environment, they are used to:
Protect electrical equipment - GRP electrical enclosures keep switchgear, distribution boards, and control panels safe from weather, dust, and unauthorised access.
House meters and utilities - Gas, water, and electricity meters are often fitted inside GRP meter boxes or cabinets for secure and long-lasting protection.
Secure telecoms and IT equipment - Broadband and telecoms infrastructure is often stored inside GRP kiosks for outdoor installations.
Cover pumps and control systems - In water treatment plants, pumping stations, and chemical dosing systems, GRP housings protect sensitive machinery from corrosion and vandalism.
Provide safe chemical storage - GRP enclosures can be designed for chemical dosing tanks, bunded storage, and other industrial applications where corrosion resistance is essential.
Create site-specific kiosks - Custom GRP cabinets are used on building sites, railways, and highways to store signalling equipment and monitoring systems.
Because GRP is lightweight, weatherproof, and non-conductive, it is particularly valuable in environments where safety, security, and durability are essential.
