COMPARISON - FRP OVER TRADITIONAL MATERIALS

FRP provides many benefits over traditional building materials such as steel, aluminium, wood and concrete.

WHEN COMPARED TO STEEL
  • FRP is highly corrosion-resistant
  • FRP is as strong as steel yet weighs 1/4th resulting in great strength-to-weight ratio.
  • Non-conductive and impact resistant
  • Easy fabrication without the need for cutting torches and welding
  • More flexibility in terms of colour options and functional features

WHEN COMPARED TO ALUMINIUM

  • FRP has low thermal conductivity, meaning it serves as a great insulator
  • It is corrosion-resistant
  • It is non-conductive
  • Does not deform under impact
WHEN COMPARED TO STEEL
  • FRP does not warp, decay and rot.
  • FRP exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion, mildew, mold and other conditions that wood cannot resist.
  • FRP delivers extreme durability without the need for environmentally hazardous protective coatings.
WHEN COMPARED TO CONCRETE
  • FRP panels are less than 15% the weight of concrete
  • There is no spalling, cracking or damage from moisture, salt or chemical
  • Very high tensile strength compared to concrete
