A GRP Kickplate (also known as a toe board) is a protective barrier installed at the base of guardrails, walkways, platforms, staircases, and other structures to prevent tools, debris, or objects from falling and causing injuries. It is made of Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), offering exceptional corrosion resistance, durability, and lightweight properties compared to traditional metal kickplates.

A GRP Kickplate (also known as a toe board) is a protective barrier installed at the base of guardrails, walkways, platforms, staircases, and other structures to prevent tools, debris, or objects from falling and causing injuries. It is made of Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), offering exceptional corrosion resistance, durability, and lightweight properties compared to traditional metal kickplates.
✅ Key Advantages of GRP Kickplates
1️⃣ Corrosion & Chemical Resistant
-
Ideal for marine, offshore, industrial, and chemical plant environments.
-
Resistant to acids, alkalis, salts, and moisture, unlike metal kickplates that rust.
2️⃣ Lightweight & High Strength
-
75% lighter than steel but retains high impact resistance.
-
Easy to handle, transport, and install, reducing labor costs.
3️⃣ Non-Conductive & Non-Magnetic
-
Safe for electrical installations (won’t conduct electricity).
-
Suitable for railways, substations, and hazardous work areas.
4️⃣ Fire Retardant (Optional)
-
Can be manufactured with fire-resistant resins (BS 476, ASTM E84, or EN 13501 compliance).
-
Ensures safety in high-risk areas like oil rigs, power plants, and industrial sites.
5️⃣ Maintenance-Free & Long Service Life
-
No need for painting, anti-corrosion coatings, or frequent replacements.
-
UV-resistant, making it perfect for outdoor installations.
