What is it?Fiber Reinforced Polymers are often referred to

as FRP, or structural fiberglassIt is not mined, does not require cutting down

trees, its production does not emit harmful gasses or pollution.

Even though some components are derived from petroleum, these are not combusted in any way

Material PropertiesIs not subject to environmental or chemical

corrosionWill not conduct electricityExtremely low heat and cold transferenceAuto-extinguishable/low combustionNo water absorptionNot subject to microorganismsExceptional stability under UV lightColor is through and through

Material PropertiesHigher Strength to weight ration than steel

or aluminumWeighs 35% less than aluminum and 80%

less than steelGreater impact resistance to impact than

ceramics
