Certifications For FRP Products
In many of the FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) jobs we encounter, certifications of one form or another are required. The good news is Redco FRP can be certified, or is already certified, by a wide range of organizations via our manufacturer, the Strongwell Corporation. Many of the certifications available have to do with various shipbuilding organizations and some are required by foreign customers. Perhaps the most important is the ISO 9001 certification of each plant.
See the table below for a full list.
