Application:
Genius© pultruded fiberglass structural shapes from Genius Composite Inc. are used in a wide range of applications and provide a unique combination of corrosion resistance, high strength, dimensional stability and light weight, along with thermal and electric non-conductivity. Durable Genius shapes provide years of low maintenance service in areas where steel, aluminum or wood components are traditionally specified. Today ,these shapes are often used in highly corrosive applications where stainless steel and other expensive components were once required.

Application Scenarios
Structural profiles for cooling tower decking are mainly used for load-bearing and walkway platforms inside industrial cooling towers, structural components in corrosive environments in the chemical and power industries, and FRP support locations requiring high strength and large spans. Their corrosion resistance, light weight and high strength make them suitable for harsh conditions such as humidity, acids and alkalis. To confirm whether they suit your specific operating conditions, please contact us for detailed specifications and a quotation.
Selection Guide
When selecting, the load-bearing requirements can be matched based on the cooling tower decking's cross-sectional dimensions (A*T1*B*T2), unit weight and installation span, combined with a comprehensive assessment of the corrosion level and temperature conditions of the service environment. Different specifications offer different mechanical properties; we recommend providing design loads and span parameters so that we can help recommend a suitable model. Please contact us for detailed specifications and a quotation.
Product Advantages
This structural profile uses fiberglass as reinforcement and resin as matrix, continuously formed by the pultrusion process. It features light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, aging resistance and dimensional stability, making it suitable for long-term use in humid and corrosive environments such as cooling towers. Its surface can be covered with fiberglass mat to enhance weather resistance and wear resistance, and it is easy to cut and install. Please contact us for detailed specifications and a quotation.
Inquiry Guide
If you need to know the specific dimensions, weight, packaging method and lead time of cooling tower decking structural profiles, please provide your project requirements or design drawings, and we will give targeted suggestions based on your operating conditions. Please contact us for detailed specifications and a quotation; we can assist you with model selection and procurement coordination.
