The C channel also makes structures comparatively lightweight. In many cases, can be up to 70% lighter. The resulting structures are high strength and rigid, suitable for machinery frames, mezzanines, stairs, and more. Due to the lightweight nature of the product saving can also be seen in the cost of transport, which helps to keep the overall project cost down.
Being manufactured from FRP, they are easy to work with and fabricate without the need for welding or any type of hot works. FRP C channels, as with other FRP products will significantly outlast steel and require virtually no maintenance.
MaxiSTRUCT is non-conductive both thermally and electrically. Making it a safe product to use in many applications where steel or aluminium would be an issue.
Being easy to handle and fabricate, they also deliver saving on the installation of the structure. Which can be done quickly and easily using only standard tools.
