other Uses

The nature of composites means that you are only limited by your imagination when it comes to applications that can use fibreglass See below for some of the options people have used Fibreglass for.  The options are truly limitless...

Composites as building materials​

Picture
For both new construction projects and renovation/replacement work, lightweight and corrosion-resistant plastic composite materials compete with traditional materials in residential, commercial, and industrial construction applications, including pipe, sheet piling for retaining walls, shingles, and concrete reinforcements (e.g. rebar). When a structural element, such as a wall or beam, can benefit from additional support, Fibreglass Reinforced Polymer composites could present a solution. Typical projects lending themselves to the advantages of plastic composites include decks, walls, and roofs.

Plastic composites are used in prefabricated, portable, and modular buildings, as well as for exterior cladding panels, which can simulate masonry or stone. In interior applications, plastic composites find application in shower enclosures and trays, baths, sinks, troughs, and spas. Vanity units, bench tops, and basins can be made from cast composite products.


Composites as car parts

Picture
From bumpers to bodies, there are many areas of a vehicle that can be made from fibreglass. Over the years we have made full body kits, bumpers, guards, spoilers, air vents, foot rests for rally cars.


​Composites as flooring

Excellent for dairy sheds, factory floors, truck floors, chiller floors, pool bottoms. Strong and lightweight, fibreglass won't rot or warp and can be made in a design and colour to suit your premises.
