This international compliance enables GCER to supply equipment that meets global safety and performance requirements, facilitating its use in diverse industrial environments around the world.
GRP pressure and vacuum equipment is used in a variety of applications :
Our GRP equipment is used for handling and storing aggressive chemicals, thanks to its corrosion resistance.
Our GRP equipment is used in power stations for applications such as reactors, cooling systems and steam pipes.
Our GRP equipment is used in wastewater treatment and drinking water purification.
Our GRP equipment is also used in the food industry for applications such as food storage and processing, where hygiene and chemical resistance are essential.
GRP pressure and vacuum equipment offers a number of advantages :
GRP is extremely resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for chemical and marine environments.
Compared with metallic materials, GRP is lighter, making it easier to transport and install equipment.
GRP is exceptionally durable, with a long service life even in harsh conditions.
GRP equipment requires little maintenance because of its resistance to chemicals and wear.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) is a composite material combining polyester resin and glass fibers. This combination gives it high mechanical strength, excellent durability, and remarkable chemical resistance.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) is a composite material offering an exceptional combination of lightness, mechanical strength, and durability. It is distinguished by its high resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and extreme environmental conditions, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial applications. In addition, its design flexibility allows for the manufacture of custom structures, optimizing the performance and longevity of equipment.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) cannot be recycled in the same way as traditional plastics. Due to its composite composition—a polymer matrix reinforced with glass fibers—conventional mechanical recycling is difficult. However, there are specialized processes for recovering end-of-life materials, including energy recovery or grinding techniques and reuse in secondary applications (fillers, construction materials, etc.). In addition, research is underway to develop more sustainable recycling methods for composites. GCER remains attentive to these technological developments in order to integrate environmentally friendly solutions into its processes.

GCER operates in various sectors, including : • Water and water desalination • Wastewater • Chemicals • Agri-food • Energy • Mining • Oil • Environment • Industrial processes
GCER specializes in : • Composite materials (GRP) • Thermoplastics such as HDPE, PVC, PPH, PVDF, PVC-C, ECTFE, and PFA • Metal construction
To find out if thermoplastic or GRP equipment has reached the end of its service life, check for : • Cracks or deformations. • Loss of resistance to stress. • Leaks or damaged seals. • Reduced performance after testing or inspections. It is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and carry out regular checks.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) is generally more expensive than thermoplastics. This difference is due to a more complex manufacturing process and the use of reinforced materials. However, GRP offers better mechanical and chemical resistance, making it ideal for demanding applications.
