FIBERGLASS REINFORCED POLYMER REBAR

FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Polymer) is a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. The fibers are usually glass (in fiberglass), basalt, carbon, or aramid. The polymer is usually an epoxy, vinyl ester, or polyester thermosetting plastic.

FRP bar has been developed as a non-corrosive alternative to steel for concrete reinforcement.

FRP bar is suitable for any structural or architectural application where a material that is corrosion resistant, lightweight, or non-conductive is required.

BENEFITS OF FRP REBAR

• Tensile Strength is Greater than Steel
• Electrically and thermally non-conductive
• Transparent to Magnetic Fields & Radar Frequencies
• Extremely Lightweight – 75% Lighter than Steel Rebar
• Will Never Corrode – Conservative Estimates Indicate Longevity Over 100 Years

Products & Services

SFT-Bar^®

As a non-corrosive alternative to steel, SFT-Bar^® (FRP rebar) is an ideal solution for any concrete reinforced project. This includes all structural or architectural applications in compromising environments.

SFT-ARGlassFiber

Alkali Resistant Glass Fibers designed and manufactured to easily be incorporated into concrete mixes. Their properties allow them to reduce/prevent cracks in concrete structures with a longer durability compared to steel.

SFT-CarbonStraps

Easily applied with Epoxy adhesive, these light, durable and resistant Carbon straps are ideal to fill crack and eliminate infiltrations. Other applications include reinforcing a concrete structure, increasing its load capacity, or repairs.

SFT-Connector

Evaluated on various criteria such as color, type, tensile strength, compression strength, tensile modulus and shear strength, find the type that fits best your project needs or contact us so we can make the best recommendation for your requirements.

SFT-RockBolt

SFT-RockBolt is a rock-bolting system made from GFRP. They can be installed with resin cartridges or forced into pre-grouted holes. Their fully threaded profile makes them optimal for mixing and bonding properties

SFT-Mesh

There are several types of Mesh based on the type of structure & application:

SFT-Bar®Mesh

For Structure Strengthening

SFT-ARMesh

For External Surface of Walls

SFT-TwistedBundleFiber

SFT-TwistedBundleFiber have many advantages thanks to their unique properties. In addition to preventing further expansion of concrete structures and helping maintain the structure integrity, this material can prevent cracks.

SFT-WavePPFiber

Polypropylene bundle wave fiber, also known as polypropylene threaded fiber, is made of polypropylene through special parallel drawing and wave forming process and surface treatment.
