GRC (Glass Reinforced Concrete)
Engineered for Architectural Freedom and Lightweight Performance
GRC (Glass Reinforced Concrete)
GRC is an advanced composite material combining high-strength cement mortar with glass fiber reinforcement.
This technology allows the creation of lightweight, thin, and complex architectural elements without compromising durability or performance.
Why Use GRC?
GRC offers exceptional design flexibility while significantly reducing structural load compared to traditional concrete.
Thin and lightweight façade panels
Curved and complex architectural forms
Decorative and custom-designed elements
Reduced dead load on structures
Faster installation and reduced transportation cost
High durability and resistance to weathering
When Should You Use Unbonded Post-Tension?
Unbonded systems are recommended when:
01.
Lightweight façade systems to reduce structural load
02.
Complex curves or custom architectural forms
03.
Decorative elements without heavy reinforcement
04.
Faster installation with reduced on-site labor
05.
Long-term durability in demanding climates
Typical Applications
Architectural façades
Cladding systems
