Grp Kiosks Are Now Available In Any Colour
The word kiosk comes from ancient Persia and originally applied to what we consider today is a small pagoda. In the context of this article a kiosk is a shed like structure made from GRP which means 'glass reinforced plastic'.
GRP kiosks serve many purposes and can be seen all about the country in towns and industrial areas. They act as protection from the elements as well as possible thieves for everything from electrical sub stations to security boxes.
These kiosks made from glass fibre can be adapted and made to specific requirements. The application may require the inside to be kept at a steady temperature or it may be that extra materials are used during manufacturing to ensure an enhanced degree of sound proofing. Another possible consideration is that the use of the kiosk may warrant better than average fire retardant chemicals.
All these considerations are discussed at the initial planning stage and with the help of some sophisticated CAD software the planning which goes into every individual project is managed in a very professional way with the customer always the priority.
Whatever the specifics of the intended use of the kiosk the attraction of GRP is that it is highly flexible and almost unlimited in design as it begins life as a soft epoxy which can be moulded into any shape or size to suit any application and this means it can be made to exact measurements with little difficulty.
The end result is a very strong material which has stood the test of the elements when one considers that boats with one hundred per cent fibre glass hulls have bounced around the world's oceans in force 10 and greater seas and returned with their crews safe to tell the tale.
As well as storage and protection these kiosks also make good huts for security personnel at factory gates. Unlike bricks and other conventional building materials these security boxes can be kept comfortably warm in winter months as they are virtually draft-proof. A small electric or gas fire will keep the GRP kiosks warm which is not always the case if the heat is simply trying to warm up cold brickwork.
Another attraction with GRP is that it can be manufactured and produced with any of the hundreds of choices of colour on the standard RAL colour chart. Unlike most other outdoor materials the kiosk is just about maintenance free. It will never need repainting and will never need re-roofing. The ease with which it can be cleaned is no more difficult than an occasional spray with a garden hose.
The manufacturers employ qualified electricians to work with the customer to understand and then install any wiring details and sockets that may be requested. Discussions from the very beginning are dealt with by a dedicated project manager who will remain in close contact with the customer until the whole work is completed to everyone's satisfaction.
