first of a kind glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) manufacturing facility in South Africa is set to disrupt the local construction industry with a sustainable alternative to steel rebar and mesh ...

a team at TU Dresden in Germany have completed what is believed to be the world’s first building made with carbon-reinforced concrete, in which the steel rebar is replaced with carbon fiber.

Concrete contractors are increasingly turning to GFRP (glass-fiber ... and other reinforced structures. The most common types of GFRP products used in these applications include rebar, rock ...

Our products, made from Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP), offer a dual advantage: they improve construction efficiency while serving as a deterrent,” notes GFRP Tech CEO Allen Fiford. Unlike ...
