Architectural

 

 

 

 

Advanced composite materials are a favorite among architects and building designers over other standard building products because of the following qualities:  ability to meet strict building codes, high strength to weight ratio, durability, design flexibility and low maintenance requirements.

Fiber reinforced polyester composites are the ideal construction medium for both internal and external architectural applications.

The open contact molding process generally employed for these applications gives freedom to the designer to practically choose any form and shape that is suitable to the architect's theme of a structure.

The possibility of integrating shapes and contours and imparting any combination of surface textures and colors to the products enables the architect to transform his creative thoughts into reality at an affordable cost.

The light weight integrated design of FRP panels makes them simple to install with reduced equipment requirements and faster installation schedules.

Composites have been successfully utilized in the building and construction industry for over thirty years both, as structural members and as non-structural panels.

Detailed engineering and design experience is a prerequisite to the achievement of the structural properties of the final product.

Key Advantages

  • Lightness in weight
  • Very high strength to weight ratio
  • Excellent weather resistance

Optional Enhanced Properties

  • Good flame retardant properties
  • Low smoke emissions
  • High thermal Insulation
  • Semi-translucent

Typical Application for FRP Composite Panels include:

  • Building claddings and facings
  • Fascia renovation
  • External building insulation
  • Long-span roofing structures
  • Structural frames
  • Internal decorative paneling
  • Partitions and facings
  • Suspended ceilings
  • Domes and cupolas

Compared to Concrete, FRP External and Internal Panels

  • practically maintenance free
  • require no further painting or decoration at site
  • completely corrosion free
  • free from environmental stress cracking
  • fully resistant to extreme weather and UV light
  • reduce the load of HVAC systems due to extremely low thermal conductivity
