Given the almost infinite possibilities for moulding composites, there really are no limits set for the architect's imagination and creativity. You can combine the structural capabilities and mouldability of FRP composites with the aesthetic appeal of a classic stone or marble finish to create truly breathtaking one-of-a-kind exteriors or interiors.
A wide range of finishes with different textures, styles, colours and effects are available, including specialty surfaces such as highly reflective mirror-like chrome finish and a concrete-like finish which is indistinguishable from concrete. The finishes are achieved by means of a moulded topcoat, also known as a gelcoat, or a post applied coating process.
The coatings are fire retardant as they have a heavy percentage of non-combustible agglomerates. The result is a tough exterior capable of resisting elements such as airborne pollutants, wind, acid rain, UV radiation, fungus and mildew. They are by nature corrosion resistant and need only periodic cleaning to maintain the feel. Depending on the type of finish and process selected, BFG International offers warranties on the products.
