Foundations, Slabs & Basements
Applications

Footings, grade beams, and slab-on-grade floors
Retaining walls, basement walls, and waterproofed concrete structures
Suspended slabs, podium decks, and parking basements
Why GFRP Rebar?

100% corrosion-resistant in high-moisture or chemical backfill environments
Ideal for coastal homes, basements, and below-grade structures
Prevents cracking, spalling, and rust staining in finished interiors
Why GFRP Mesh?

Provides crack control in slabs and waterproofing layers
Improves load distribution for heated or decorative floors
Non-conductive → compatible with underfloor heating systems
Apartments & Multi-Residential Buildings
Apartments & Multi-Residential Buildingss
Applications

Balconies, façades, rooftop decks, and parking structures
Common area slabs, columns, and stair cores
Advantages

Zero rust stains on exposed surfaces and façades
4× lighter than steel — simplifies high-rise logistics and handling
Extends building service life to 75–100 years with no structural rehabilitation
Use Case Example

GFRP rebar in balcony slabs prevents corrosion-induced cracking and eliminates water ingress, protecting finishes and reducing maintenance for residents and facility managers.
Hotels & Resorts
Hotels & Resorts
Applications

Swimming pools, spa decks, rooftop terraces, and retaining walls
Podium slabs, parking levels, and coastal or humid foundations
Why GFRP

100 % corrosion resistance in chlorinated or saline water environments
Non-conductive → safe near lighting and pool electrical systems
Lighter reinforcement → ideal for rooftop pools and architectural decks
Result

Longer service life, zero rust staining on decorative concrete, and reduced maintenance in humid or seaside resort environments.
