So what is fibreglass?

Fiberglass, or as it's fancily known, Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), is like a superhero material made by weaving glass fibers into a tough, flexible mat. Mixed with resin, this dynamic duo creates an unbreakable bond, ready to tackle any shape or form. Once cured, it transforms into a rock-solid, indestructible (I mean within reason it’s not bulletproof) layer, perfect for crafting all sorts of molded wonders!

What makes it perfect for planters?

Fibreglass offers numerous benefits compared to other materials. It is lightweight, more affordable than carbon fiber composites, and versatile. In addition to being resistant to corrosion and UV damage, fibreglass is strong, impact-resistant, waterproof, and durable. Its ability to be molded into various shapes and colors makes it a popular choice across different industries and ideal for all those planter designs in many projects. We know planters come in various sizes and shapes often on the same project, with the fibreglass molding process we can accommodate the curves and angles with ease. Once cured you have a structure that is ready to stand the test of time. Moreover, fibreglass is easy to maintain and clean.

Fibreglass and its Impact on the Environment

While fibreglass may not be renowned for its environmental benefits, it doesn't mean it's a total write-off. At Planter Protect Ltd, we prioritise not only the durability, versatility, and protection aspects of the material but also its eco-friendly attributes.
