Product Description
GFRP mesh, or Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer mesh, is widely known as fiberglass mesh. This material consists of intricately woven GFRP strands and is crucial for reinforcing concrete elements like slabs, walls, and structural components in construction.
GFRP mesh is an innovative, versatile solution in modern construction. Combining corrosion resistance, lightweight design, and robust strength enhances concrete quality, streamlines construction, lowers maintenance expenses, and prolongs building life.
Application
Reinforcement of concrete structures and mixed reinforced concrete structures.
Structures located in coastal areas, airports, hospitals and more.
Special purpose objects (power plants).
Weight sensitive structures.
Road industry (construction of bridges, roads, tunnels).
Construction of agricultural structures.
Heat/cold sensitive environments (basements, patio decks).
Civil projects (commercial & residential buildings, high rises).
Benefits
- Corrosion Resistance. GFRP mesh will not rust, even in the harshest environments. Unlike steel mesh, FRP mesh ensures a longer lifespan and minimizes maintenance needs.
- Highly Chemical Resistant. GFRP mesh resistant to salt ions, acids, chemicals, and the inherent alkalinity of concrete. This is important when you build concrete structures in coastal areas near seas, oceans, lakes and rivers.
- Lightweight. GFRP rebar is 9 times lighter in weight than the equivalent strength of Steel rebar.
- Strength. Fiberglass rebar has 3 times stronger tensile strength than steel. GFRP has substantially greater bond strength to concrete than steel which makes GFRP-reinforced concrete more resistant to cracking.

Advantages of using GFRP mesh
- Reduction of rebar scrap
- Easily cut and machined
- Easy and Rapid Installation time
- Lower transportation & storage costs
- Reduced whole-life project costs
GFRP mesh represents an evolution of steel mesh rebar and makes the GFRP composite technology applicable in construction in practically every of its construction. Composite reinforcement mesh is sustainable and shows prevailing results. The use of FRP mesh in various construction projects not only enhances structural integrity but also opens new possibilities for innovative design and more efficient construction practices.
Product Parameters
Fiberglass reinforcing mesh is 3 times stronger, 8 times lighter than steel and durable for over 80 years. It is applicable to reinforce floors, concrete pads, roads and parking lots.

FAQ
What is reinforcing fiber mesh and when to use?
A glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) mesh is made from GFRP bars of a periodic profile located in two mutually perpendicular directions. Rods are made by pultrusion from fiberglass roving impregnated with epoxy resin with further polymerization.
How to buy concrete reinforcing mesh?
We can arrange delivery anywhere in the world. You need to contact with company manager and he will organize delivery.
Where to buy concrete reinforcing mesh?
You can buy glassfiber reinforcing mesh directly from our factory and our representatives.
Contact the company manager for detailed information
How to cut reinforcing mesh?
GFRP mesh can be cut with a circular saw with cutting wheel, a manual rebar cutter, bolt cutters or grinder.
How to tie mesh with wire?
Plastic or metal wire or clips can be used to fix and tie GFRP mesh.
How much reinforcing mesh?
To calculate the amount of mesh you need, please contact company manager and provide him with information about the type of construction work and its dimensions.
When did reinforcing concrete with steel mesh or rods begin in?
The first experience of using fiberglass dates back to 1956 in the United States. For several years, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has been developing a project for a house made of polymer materials using fiberglass. It is intended for one of the attractions at Disneyland California. It served for 10 years, until they decided to replace it with another attraction and designate it for demolition.
