GRC-SF

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete is an advanced composite material that integrates high-quality Portland cement, pozzolanic industrial byproducts as cement replacements, and carefully optimized silica sand with omnidirectionally woven alkali-resistant glass fiber reinforcement. This innovative combination allows for the production of thin and lightweight panels exhibiting exceptional physical properties. The incorporation of glass fiber eliminates the need for reinforcement, enabling the manufacture of facades as modular pieces that are both thin and light, facilitating efficient installation and finishing processes.

GFRC is highly formable, A1 class incombustible, and can be produced in a variety of colors, offering outstanding surface quality that accommodates diverse forms and textures. A steel stud frame is employed to ensure dimensional stability and secure fastening. The reduced thickness of these panels not only decreases material consumption but also enhances transport efficiency and eliminates the need for heavy machinery during installation.

The GRC elements are engineered to withstand various loads encountered both before and after assembly, including wind, building movements and settlements, earthquakes, moisture and temperature stresses, the panel’s static loads, and loads arising during transport and assembly. The steel frame is designed to absorb stresses within the shell caused by moisture and heat variations, using flexible systems to prevent surface tension and avoid damage to the GFRC/GRC shell.

Moreover, GFRC is a sustainable material, characterized by excellent durability, a long service life, low maintenance requirements, and minimal material usage, all while maintaining superior formability within a lightweight shell.
