GFRP Rebar
The fibreglass reinforcement (also known as glass-fibre reinforced plastic or composite rebar, mesh) is steadily replacing conventional steel rebar in construction across the world. GFRP rebar is made out of a mix of ultra-strong glass or basalt fibres and a connecting resin, resulting in a construction grade rebar with prevailing benefits over steel. Synthetic resins are used as a binding agent for fibres, protecting the fibres from mechanical effects and from the harmful affects of the environment during manufacturing of the product and its operation.
Application of Fiberglass Rebar
Industrial Construction
For manufacturing plants, special-purpose structures, and railway sleepers used in high-speed or underground railways.
Residential & Civil Construction
Suitable for buildings, public infrastructure, and civil engineering projects.

Road Construction
Used to reinforce roads, bridges, and other transportation infrastructure.
Marine & Harbor Facilities
Ideal for shoreline protection, harbor walls, and other marine structures exposed to corrosion.
