Abstract: A method for the manufacture of fiber reinforced plastic articles includes the steps of pultruding a first profile through a die and applying a thermoplastic resin to the first profile to form a second profile bonded integrally to the first profile. A fiber reinforced plastic article (10) prepared according to the method of the present invention comprises a first profile (11) comprising a plurality of continuous fiber reinforcing materials (13) and a thermosetting resin (14) impregnating the reinforcing material and, a second profile (12) integrally bonded to the first profile and comprising a thermoplastic resin (65).
