High performance, lightweight GRP solutions for expanding data centre infrastructure
Australia is currently experiencing a huge data centre boom with hundreds of operational data centres nationwide and many more in the planning pipeline, whilst New Zealand also has a rapidly growing data centre sector.
As facilities expand, every aspect of design and construction must prioritise uptime, electrical safety, security, speed of installation and long-term operational value. Our GRP walkways, access platforms and structural components provide a high-performance alternative to traditional materials such as steel, aluminium and concrete. They are particularly beneficial where reducing weight, eliminating corrosion, improving electrical safety or minimising maintenance and installation disruption is essential.
We’ve got a GRP solution for a wide variety of data centre applications. Use our walkways, ramps and stairs to enable safe movement across roofs, plant decks and uneven zones. Or install our lightweight trench covers to allow safe access with easy removal for inspection and maintenance.
Low-carbon GRP flooring for data centres
Our composite solutions help support data centre operators aiming to become carbon neutral. Our pioneering d² range is engineered to reduce embodied carbon through efficient material use and advanced manufacturing techniques, lowering environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle.
We can also calculate the carbon savings achieved by replacing traditional materials with our products, helping you demonstrate a reduction in your carbon footprint.
Whether you’re delivering a new-build facility, upgrading existing infrastructure or fitting out a co-location data centre, we can help. Improve electrical safety around switchgear and cable infrastructure with our non-conductive access structures, or upgrade rooftop access paths to mechanical plants with our open mesh GRP flooring.
Why choose Dura GRP for data centres?
- Lightweight construction – approximately one-third the weight of steel, making products easier to transport, handle and install while reducing structural loading.
- Enhanced electrical safety – non-conductive and non-magnetic properties make GRP ideal for switchgear areas, cable management routes, risers and communications infrastructure.
- Outstanding corrosion-resistance – unlike steel, GRP will not rust, helping reduce maintenance in cooling systems, rooftop plant areas, external compounds and damp service corridors.
- Flexible security solutions – GRP mesh panels, grating and framed systems can be used to create secure partitions, equipment cages, riser enclosures and separation barriers within co-location facilities.
- Faster installation with less disruption – modular, prefabricated components minimise the need for cranes, hot works and prolonged shutdown periods.
- Long-term performance – designed for a service life of up to 65 years, our GRP products combine low-maintenance requirements with durable, anti-slip performance for lasting reliability.
