Forbes have recently completed a project a little out of the ordinary, in the form of a windmill roof.  The unusual request came from a customer on the off chance Forbes would be able to assist with their expertise in GRP structures, albeit usually in the form of storage tanks and vessels.

The conical roof was manufactured at 4111mm diameter, supplied in two parts for ease of transportation and assembled fully once on site. The roof was coloured to suit customer requirements, in order to replicate a traditional looking windmill roof and was supplied with a flanged lip to fix direct to the mills exposed brickwork.
