Fiberglass Marine Composite Panels

    • Waterproof, UV-resistant and Corrosion-resistant.
    • Enhanced Marine Performance
    • Reduce Manufacturing Costs
    Marine Composite Panels

    Marine composite panels are designed for the harsh marine environment, which is humid, high in salt and accompanied by strong ultraviolet radiation. In this harsh natural environment, ordinary materials will quickly rot or be damaged by waves. As the leader of composite materials, glass fiber reinforced composite panels are lightweight, durable and can withstand the harsh conditions common at sea. They are used in various marine applications, including shipbuilding, marine transportation and offshore structures.

    Benefits of FRP

    Fiberglass composite panels are sandwich panels with FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) as the surface material. FRP is a composite material made of glass fiber and resin matrix (such as unsaturated polyester resin, epoxy resin, etc.). FRP has excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and light weight. Usually, the surface of FRP is coated with a waterproof and UV-resistant gel coat, which enhances the performance of FRP and greatly extends the service life of FRP. Therefore, composite panels with FRP skin are very suitable for marine environments.

    Main Types of Marine Composite Panels

    Marine Composite Panels
    Fiberglass Facing Foam Core Sandwich Panels
    • XPS (extruded polystyrene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PVC (polyethylene) foam are usually used as core materials. These foams are honeycomb-shaped independent closed-cell cell structures, which can prevent moisture from penetrating into the structure.
    • Application: Wall panels, partitions, ceilings, etc.
    Marine Composite Panels
    Fiberglass Facing Honeycomb Core Sandwich Panels
    • Thermoplastic polypropylene (PP) honeycomb core has extremely high compressive strength, bending strength, shear strength and light weight. Using PP honeycomb as the core material can greatly reduce the weight of the marine composite panel and increase its strength.
    • Application: Decks, floors.
    Marine Composite Panels
    Fiberglass Facing Plywood Core Sandwich Panels
    • Ordinary plywood is extremely easy to rot in the marine environment. TOPOLO has developed waterproof marine plywood that can adapt to the marine environment and can achieve a service life of decades.
    • Application: Decks, floors.

    TOPOLOGROUP has developed many types of fiberglass marine composite panels suitable for a variety of marine environment applications.
