GRP Express trade accounts are now open for businesses that buy GRP regularly or need coordinated support across products, pricing and projects. The account route keeps trade approval, pricing status and credit decisions separate.
At a glance
- Apply for a trade account through a controlled review.
- Approved account pricing is shown without exposing internal price-book names.
- Technical support remains available for product and project decisions.
- Credit is assessed separately and is never automatic.
A clearer account route
Business customers can submit company and purchasing information for manual review. Approval confirms account access; it does not automatically create a credit facility.
This separation protects both customers and GRP Express while allowing useful pricing and order support to begin.
Buying support for repeat work
Approved customers can use account pricing where assigned and keep normal WooCommerce account functions for orders, addresses and payment methods.
Project cut lists, saved requirements and technical workflows can be developed around approved access without replacing core checkout behaviour.
Technical questions stay visible
Trade status does not remove the need to confirm span, resin, surface, fixings and delivery. Product pages and the Technical Hub remain part of the buying route.
Customers can move from a standard purchase into a project enquiry when dimensions or loads need review.
What to prepare
Applicants should provide accurate company details and purchasing context. Project customers should also gather product schedules, drawings or recurring SKU requirements.
GRP Express will communicate decisions and any next steps without exposing internal commercial classifications.

Use the Technical Hub, browse GRP products, or contact GRP Express for a project-specific review.
