Production history

 one of the earliest producers of FRP skylight

In 1996, HIGOAL FRP translucent corrugated panel had been used to the roof panel of MPC international steel-structured factory in Guangzhou. Ten years later, it is now still used very well except for some yellowness in color and little fiberglass exposed, no leaking or breakage found.
In 1997, HIGOAL issued the first advertising brochure (Picture 2&3 ). In the brochure, FRP skylight panel became the key products of HIGOAL at that moment.
In 1998, HIGOAL produced a manual skylight panel with a gel coat added on surface that has better weather resistant . In this year, the output of HIGOAL FRP panels reached a historical height, totally 76500m. 7 years later, we found that the same process  was adopted by some brother companies abroad in their documents. Obviously, such process had been widely acknowledged in FRP industry. In1998,HIGOAL became the first producer who issued the << Guaranty of 10 years quality >> for its own products in China market.

During the period from 1999 to early 2001, the FRP panel market was fluctuating because some plastic panel PC, PVC disturb into the FRP market with lower price but better appearance. Such a big impact made many FRP producers scared and even trasferred into the production of PC, PVC to meet the temporary needs of market. However, we, HIGOAL, did not gave up but withstood the depression depending on our professional knowledge and confidence on FRP. In the end of 2000, the bad feature of weather resistant of plastic panel was finally revealed in market.(Mark: We do not deny the excellent performance of PC, PVC in other application field)


 The first automatic production line in south China

In early 2001, HIGOAL decided to employ advanced mechanical production line of FRP panel, thus, the quality improved greatly, at the same time, HIGOAL produced the first mechanical FRP panel with surface gel coat and protection film in south china.

From 2001 to 2004, HIGOAL mechanical panels experienced from trial-production to mass production. With mature technique and professional knowledge, its quality and service were greatly improved. What was more appreciated was that HIGOAL did not receive any complaint for rain leakage from customers in recent three years and there was no old customers that asked a termination of cooperation with HIGOAL.

HIGOAL issued more than 60,000 volume brochure during the two years between 2002 and 2004.
It was professional advertisement which made a full introduction on the design, installation and application of FRP skylight panel. It also extended some general knowledge about FRP material. Such a popularization made contribution to the development of FRP industry in China and that FPR skylight panel obtained a wide acknowledgement in metal building industry.

Quality wins market

At present, the producers of PC, PVC panels in Guangdong have woken up to the performance of PC, PVC panels and turned back to the FRP market. It is obviously that quality wins the market. 

The new generation Strengthened FRP panels
FRP skylight panel has been produced in HIGOAL for over 10 years and has experienced many improvements, can we make another progress? This is a real problem because every generation of HIGOAL FRP skylight panel should be tested and approved carefully and strictly before it came into market. Such a excellent product, we are now required to improve it, can we ?


Base on the saying that there is no limit in improvement, HIGOAL engineers found a way. Since we have been paying much attention to improve the aging resistant and double layer protection of panels but ignoring the strength which is now giving us a way to improve.
The new HIGOAL FRP skylight panels have been improved in below aspects:

1. Improve the fiberglass content by 18.3%
Its bending was improved by 23%, extendability was improved by 19.6%.(This obvious change can easily be felt by manual pulling or folding) Such improvement in strength greatly reduced the damage problem in transportation and installation, enhanced the security index in typhoon area or the building with large distance between purlines and decreased the breakage of bolt hole when auto-drilling
What made us surprised was that the strength retaining value reached 75% in aging experiment which was only 65% before. Therefore, we believe that new HIGOAL FRP panels are more strengthened and safer than before.
2. Add auxiliary thread in processing
The accessional thread adding on surface made the fiberglass distributed more equal. Thus, it improved the thickness tolerance and flatness of panels and bought us a more comfortable environment.
3.Production facility
The new washer and baker greatly reduced the dust and bead produced during process  which made the panel cleaner and more environmental.
HIGOAL met many difficulties and paid a lot in developing this new generation product. From the very beginning, our sales department suggested that the  new product should be much better than the old one or there is no need to make any changes.
In the end of year 2006, we were so glad that the new generation of FRP panels was successfully developed, however, we met new difficulty meanwhile. Since the strength of product was improved, the production cost raised as well. Thus, this plan was rejected by our sales department thinking of  we raise the price we will lost our competitive power in the major FRP market and will result in an vicious circle.
Since there was no way to cut down the cost in raw material, our engineers found another way to decrease the cost, that was production equipments. They found that the major cost focused on the consumption of electricity. Fortunately, they found a better way to reduce this part of consumption. They took use of the absorbability and release of heat energy of FRP products to design a heat energy circle system. By doing so, the electric consumption was greatly reduced, the product eligibility reached as high as 98.5% and the leftover material in HIGOAL panel production got reused in other production line. After a hard year in researching and developing, the new generation HIGOAL FRP panel was finally brought into the market.
As the above mentioned experience in researching and developing, we are confident to tell you that the new generation HIGOAL FRP panel is a more strengthened, safer, cleaner and more economical panel.
(Mark:The comparesion in this article is only the comparesion between the old product and new product of HIGOAL, we, HIGOAL, are responsible for the veracity of data in experiment mentioned in this article )

The production of HIGOAL’s strengthened skylight panel bring the FRP moulding technique in China to the front of the FRP industry in the world.

What is the attractive point of HIGOAL FRP panels
 
src=/Upfile/image/DSC01607.jpg The biggest difference between HIGOAL FRP panels and others is its professional ability. Due to the development and experience in the past over 10 years, we can provide mature technique on the weather resistant, strength and the structure of panels. As a customer of HIGOAL, you never need worry about duties, shipping costs, customs, import brokers, language barriers, or evern quality, we can provide the best efficient solution for you.
