What is GFRP Rebar?
GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) rebar offers a groundbreaking alternative to traditional steel rebar, introducing non-corrosive and non-metallic reinforcement to construction projects. It's a versatile choice suitable for both new construction and structural strengthening.
GFRP Rebar is a Structural Reinforcement Bar with High-Strength Glass Fibers and Corrosion-Resistant Properties, Bound by a Durable Polymeric Thermoset Resin.
Corrosion of internal reinforcing steel is one of the chief causes of failure of the concrete structure resulting in the crashing of concrete creating a direct avenue for chloride stobeg in oxidizing the steel rebar.NJ ENGITECH is aprovenand
