Basalt Fiber Reinforcement (BFRP)

Basalt fiber reinforcement is an advanced alternative to traditional steel reinforcement in concrete structures.

Unlike steel reinforcement, basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) does not corrode. This makes it particularly suitable for marine structures, infrastructure projects and aggressive environments where durability is critical.

ReforceTech develops innovative reinforcement systems based on fiber reinforced polymer technology. These solutions reduce structural weight while delivering high tensile strength and long-term durability.

Compared with conventional steel reinforcement, BFRP reinforcement offers several key advantages:

  • Corrosion-free reinforcement
  • Significantly lower weight

  • High tensile strength

  • Improved durability in aggressive environments

  • Reduced lifecycle costs

 

These properties enable engineers and designers to develop lighter, longer-lasting and more sustainable concrete structures.

Applications of Basalt Fiber Reinforcement

  • Marine structures exposed to saltwater

  • Bridge decks and infrastructure

  • Precast concrete elements

  • Tunnels and underground structures

  • Industrial facilities exposed to aggressive environments
