FRP Lamination for Mild Steel Equipment, Chemical Plant
02 May 2025
-
Client: Yinpolin Agriculture Sdn Bhd (now Hextar Fert Sdn Bhd) -
Start Year: 2013 – Ongoing
-
Application: FRP clear coating on mild steel I-Beams, chemical tanks, handrails, and equipment supports
-
Method: Hand lay-up fiberglass lamination using clear resin + fiberglass mat
-
Purpose: Protect against chemical corrosion, increase structural lifespan, and reduce steel replacement frequency
Back in 2013, Yinpolin Agriculture Sdn Bhd approached us with a recurring issue—corrosion on their steel components due to aggressive chemical exposure in their fertilizer production plant. To address this, we proposed FRP lamination using clear resin and fiberglass matting. Over the years, our FRP application has proven effective in forming a seamless corrosion barrier, increasing the service life of their steel handrails, I-beams, and chemical tanks. Today, as Hextar Fert Sdn Bhd, they continue to trust our solutions to maintain safety and integrity in harsh environments.
Why FRP Lamination is Ideal for Chemical Fertilizer Plants
Corrosion Resistance for Aggressive Environments
Steel exposed to acidic or alkaline chemicals is prone to rapid rusting. FRP offers superior chemical resistance and does not degrade easily.
Long-Term Durability and Cost Efficiency
Instead of frequent steel replacements, our FRP lining extends asset lifespan by up to 3X with minimal maintenance.
Customizable for Irregular Structures
With hand lay-up lamination, even oddly shaped steel structures—like pipe joints, flange edges, or welded connections—can be fully coated.
Our Hand Lay-Up FRP Lining Process
-
Surface Preparation: Grit blasting and degreasing mild steel surface
-
Base Resin Application: High-quality clear polyester resin
-
Matting & Lamination: 1–3 layers of fiberglass mat laminated manually
-
Final Curing: Ensures structural bonding and chemical resistance
-
Post-Coating Inspection: Quality control and customer verification
Our long-term supply relationship with Hextar Fert showcases our commitment to quality and service consistency. We've supported plant expansion, shutdown maintenance, and even emergency repair coating services over the years. Our skilled team can work within tight downtime limits, ensuring zero compromise on plant operation.

How long does a typical FRP lamination last?
With proper application and maintenance, FRP lining can last for years in aggressive industrial conditions.
