FRP Rebars Market in Construction Industry, by Type (GFRP & BFRP), by Application (Roads, Bridges & Tunnels, Electrical Isolation, Marine Structures & Water Fronts, Water Treatment Plants, MRI Rooms & Others) & by Region - Global Trends & Forecast to 2019

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) usually consists of a combination of reinforcement fibers and a polymer resin matrix. The glass fibers act as the reinforcement providing the majority of the tensile strength resistance, while the resin surrounds the fibers providing restraint from buckling, durability, and corrosive resistance to the composite system. The FRP rebars market is a large segment within the construction industry, worth several millions.

The increasing demand and cost of the raw materials and energy will require greater productivity, efficiency, and selectivity in industrial processes. The GFRP materials are most extensively used as a raw material for FRP rebars. Most of the FRP rebars are used in roads, bridges & tunnels, electrical isolation, and marine structure & water fronts applications. The factors responsible for the growing demand of FRP rebars in the construction industry are the growth in global construction spending, growing acceptance of FRP rebars, and initiatives for research &development for FRP rebars products.
