Imikhiqizo ye-Fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) iye yasetshenziswa ngokwandayo emishinini esindisa ukuphila ngenxa yezimpawu zayo ezingasindi, ezimelana nokugqwala, kanye nezici eziqine kakhulu.Izinto ze-FRP zinikeza ukuqina nokwethembeka okuphakeme, okuzenza zilungele izinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlukahlukene ezisindisa ukuphila.Emishinini esindisa ukuphila, imikhiqizo ye-FRP ijwayele ukusetshenziselwa ukukhiqiza izikebhe ezisindisa ukuphila, izihlenga zokuphila, ama-lifebuoy, neziqukathi zokugcina impahla yezokuphepha. Ukusetshenziswa kwe-FRP ezintweni ezisindisa ukuphila kuqinisekisa ukuthi imikhiqizo iyakwazi ukumelana nezimo zasolwandle ezinzima, ekugcineni kube nomthelela ukuphepha nokuvikeleka kwabantu olwandle.Ukwengeza, ikhono le-FRP lokumelana nokugqwala okuvela emanzini anosawoti kanye namakhemikhali liqhubezela ukuthuthukisa ukufaneleka kwayo kwempahla esindisa ukuphila.Sekukonke, ukwethulwa kwemikhiqizo ye-FRP kumishini esindisa ukuphila kuthuthukise kakhulu ukusebenza, ukuphila isikhathi eside, nokuthembeka kwalawa madivayisi okuphepha abalulekile.
