FRP Pipes

FRP pipes are filament-wound or moulded pipes manufactured from fiberglass reinforcement combined with thermoset resins such as polyester, isophthalic, vinyl ester, or epoxy. Unlike MS and RCC pipes, FRP pipes do not rust, pit, or spall when exposed to aggressive chemicals, saline water, or corrosive soil. Compared to thermoplastic pipes, FRP offers higher stiffness, better pressure capability, and superior performance in buried or above-ground installations. Their excellent strength-to-weight ratio allows longer spans, fewer supports, and easier handling. For Gujarat’s coastal, chemical, and industrial belts, FRP piping provides a long-life solution where steel and concrete pipelines fail prematurely.

Reconsky FRP pipes are designed and manufactured in accordance with recognised international and Indian standards including AWWA, BS, ASTM, ISO, DIN, API, and BIS codes applicable to GRP/FRP piping. Pipe diameters range from small process lines to very large transmission and header pipelines, typically from 25 mm up to several thousand millimetres. Pressure classes are engineered from low-pressure gravity applications to moderate and high-pressure services by optimising laminate structure, wall thickness, and stiffness class. Pipes are also designed to withstand external soil loads, traffic loads, vacuum, and thermal stresses for buried and above-ground installations.

Reconsky FRP pipes are ideally suited for corrosive services such as seawater, brine, cooling water, chemical effluents, acidic and alkaline solutions, and aggressive industrial wastewater. They are widely used in chemical transfer lines, scrubber circulation systems, acid handling, desalination intake and outfall pipelines, and utility services. In water and wastewater sectors, FRP pipes perform reliably in raw water, treated water, sewage, STP, and ETP networks. Their smooth, non-corroding bore makes them especially suitable for long-distance pipelines where maintenance access is limited. In Gujarat’s coastal and chemical corridors, FRP piping delivers consistent performance under harsh service conditions.

Reconsky manufactures FRP pipes using controlled filament winding and moulding processes to ensure uniform fibre orientation, consistent wall thickness, and high laminate quality. Pipes undergo testing for hydrostatic pressure, stiffness, dimensional accuracy, and laminate properties to confirm compliance with design standards. Jointing systems such as adhesive bonded bell-and-spigot joints, flanged joints, or laminated joints are selected based on pressure and installation requirements to achieve leak-proof performance. Engineering support is provided for thrust blocks, supports, anchoring, and thermal expansion to prevent mechanical overstress and ensure long-term reliability.

Reconsky FRP pipes offer significant lifecycle cost savings by eliminating corrosion-related failures, internal coating renewals, and frequent repairs common with MS and RCC pipelines. Their lightweight construction reduces transportation and installation costs, especially for long routes and elevated installations. Smooth internal surfaces maintain low friction losses, improving hydraulic efficiency and reducing pumping energy over time. For coastal and chemically aggressive regions such as Gujarat’s industrial hubs, FRP pipes provide unmatched durability, reliability, and long-term value. Backed by Reconsky’s design, installation, and after-sales support, these systems are ideal for high-performance pipeline infrastructure.
