Fiberglass grating—also known as fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating —is a high-performance composite flooring system engineered for industrial environments where corrosion, safety, and maintenance costs are major concerns. In my experience working with industrial facilities, the biggest issue with traditional steel grating isn’t strength—it’s corrosion, downtime, and long-term replacement costs. That’s exactly where fiberglass grating outperforms metal alternatives. If you're evaluating industrial flooring for chemical plants, wastewater facilities, marine platforms, food processing units, or heavy manufacturing operations, this guide will help you understand whether fiberglass grating is the right solution. What Is Fiberglass Grating? Fiberglass grating is a structural panel made from continuous glass fibers embedded in thermosetting resin, forming a corrosion-resistant, load-bearing grid system. It combines: Fiberglass reinforcement (for strength) Resin sys...
What is a Boating Licence in Alberta and Why You Need One In Alberta, if you plan on operating a powered watercraft, you need a boating licence—more specifically, the Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC). Despite being called a licence, it's more of a national certification issued by Transport Canada. This card proves that you've completed an accredited boating safety course and passed the official test. It doesn’t matter what size engine your boat has. If there’s a motor attached, even a small trolling engine, a licence is required by law. The goal is to ensure every operator on the water understands the rules, risks, and safety procedures that keep everyone protected. The idea behind the PCOC is simple: educated boaters are safer boaters. Whether you're fishing on a quiet lake or cruising on a busy river, having a boating licence means you’re equipped with the knowledge to navigate safely and legally.
