Fiberglass FRP Solutions for Rhode Island
As the Ocean State, Rhode Island’s water and wastewater infrastructure is constantly exposed to the challenges of a coastal environment. Corrosive salt spray, high humidity, seasonal nor’easters, and winter freeze-thaw cycles demand materials that can deliver long-term performance without degradation.
TRACOM’s fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) shelters, flumes, and manholes are engineered to thrive in these demanding conditions. FRP is completely immune to the rust and corrosion that plague metal and concrete structures in marine environments. It is also unaffected by the cracking and spalling caused by freezing and thawing. Given Rhode Island’s compact and often congested landscape, the lightweight nature of Tracom’s FRP solutions also simplifies transportation and installation, reducing project time and costs.
Rugged Fiberglass Solutions
- Fiberglass Shelters – Protect critical controls, pumps, and other equipment from salt air, high winds, and harsh New England weather.
- Flow-Measurement Weirs – Precision-molded weirs deliver accurate and reliable open-channel flow data, unaffected by the corrosive coastal environment.
- Fiberglass Flumes – Lightweight and corrosion-proof, our fiberglass flumes are available in standard configurations or can be customized for your specific project.
- Metering Manholes – Pre-engineered for fast installation, providing a durable, watertight housing for sensitive flow monitoring instruments.
