What is FRP reinforcing bars Mesh?
FRP Rebar Mesh is a high-performance reinforcement material made from woven glass fiber strands, coated with an alkali-resistant layer. It is widely used in construction, decoration, and industrial applications for strengthening, crack resistance, and protection. The mesh is lightweight, durable, and offers excellent resistance to alkaline environments, making it ideal for use in exterior insulation and finishing systems (EIFS), plastering, and concrete reinforcement.

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. We offer mesh with wide range opening sizes and bar diameters. Standart delivery form is rolls with a width of 1 m and length of 50 m. For sheets 1×2 or 1×3 m or 2×3 m or 2×6 m. Mesh opening sizes from 50×50 to 400×400 mm. We also produce the mesh according to individual customer sizes.
It has excellent resistance to chemical substances such as acids, alkalis, and salts, and can resist the erosion of chloride ions and low pH solutions. It is particularly resistant to the corrosion of carbon compounds and chlorine compounds, making it suitable for harsh corrosive environments.
