Filon mpGRP
Filon mpGRP (multi-purpose GRP) introduces the distinctive benefits of glass reinforced polyester (GRP) to the traffic sign industry, presenting a variety of exceptional advantages compared to traditional aluminium signs.
Signs that don’t ‘walk’
Filon mpGRP signs lack any value for potential thieves as they cannot be melted down and have no intrinsic value to provide illegal funds.
Long term strength and durability
Filon mpGRP has been engineered to offer a combination of robustness and durability, while also being lightweight and easy to handle. Resistant to both high and low temperatures, and the diverse weather conditions in Europe, these panels guarantee a minimum lifespan of 12 years.
High impact resistance
Filon mpGRP panels pass the impact test specified under BS EN 12899-1 for road traffic signs.
Minimum surface preparation
Before applying self-adhesive vinyl, the panels simply need to be wiped clean. They are specifically designed in a grey colour to eliminate the need for surface painting the reverse face, which is already UV protected.
Immune to corrosion
GRP is extensively utilised in marine and similar challenging settings due to its resistance. Panels will not rust or corrode from road salt or chemically aggressive conditions, which otherwise would result in deterioration of the sign
Compatible with industry standard reflective films and fixing systems
Filon mpGRP is compatible with 3M™ Scotchlite and Nikkalite reflective films and Bollhoff/Henrob riveting systems.
Compliant with regulatory standards
Filon mpGRP meets all the requirements of BS EN12899-1 following accelerated weathering tests.
Passively safe
Filon mpGRP panels have undergone successful testing with passively safe posts at the MIRA test centre.
