GFRP Bars, Mesh & Bent Elements
GFRP, or Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer, is a composite material that has gained significant attention in the construction industry. It is made by reinforcing plastic resin with fine glass fibers, resulting in a lightweight yet durable material. GFRP offers several advantages over traditional construction materials, such as steel — including high strength, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility. It has found application in various structural elements, such as reinforcing bars, grids, panels, and profiles.
GFRP bars, mesh, and bent elements are key components in the construction industry, revolutionizing the way structures are built — combining the strength of glass fibers with the versatility of polymer resins.
GFRP Bars
An alternative to traditional steel reinforcement bars in concrete structures. Offer excellent corrosion resistance, are up to 80% lighter than steel bars — making them easier to handle and transport — with a high strength-to-weight ratio.
GFRP Mesh
Also known as fiberglass mesh — a sheet of interwoven GFRP strands used for reinforcing concrete slabs, walls, and other structural elements, sharing the same core benefits as GFRP bars.
GFRP Bent Elements
Structural components made from a composite of glass fibers and polymer resin matrix — custom-made and designed with specific bends, angles, or curves for various construction and infrastructure applications.
From Raw Fiber to Finished Product
GFRP is made through a precise manufacturing process — six controlled stages that transform raw glass fiber into a rigid, durable composite.
Glass Fiber Production
Glass filaments formed by melting glass and drawing it into continuous strands, coated with a sizing agent.
Matrix Preparation
Polymer resin (polyester or epoxy) mixed with curing agents, fillers, and pigments.
Fiber Impregnation
Fibers arranged in pattern and thoroughly coated with the liquid polymer matrix.
Curing
Heat or chemical reaction initiates polymerization, solidifying the composite structure.
Shaping & Molding
Compression molding, vacuum bagging, or resin transfer molding shapes the final geometry.
Finishing
Trimming, sanding, and protective coatings applied to enhance durability and aesthetics.
