Materials Systems
BFG International works with a comprehensive range of advanced materials -- from thermoset resins and high-performance fibres to structural cores and ultra high performance concrete -- to engineer composite solutions tailored to every application.
Thermoset Resins
Resin Matrix Systems
The resin matrix binds reinforcing fibres together, transfers loads between them, and protects them from the environment. BFG works with four primary thermoset resin families.
Polyester Resins
Low cost, good dimensional stability, widely used in general-purpose FRP applications.

Epoxy Resins
Superior mechanical properties and adhesion for high-performance structural applications.

Reinforcing Fibres
Fibre Reinforcements
Reinforcing fibres provide the primary strength and stiffness in a composite. BFG selects from four fibre families to match the structural, weight, and cost demands of each project.
E-Glass
The industry workhorse -- excellent strength-to-cost ratio for the broadest range of applications.

Carbon Fibre
Exceptional stiffness and strength at minimal weight for aerospace and high-performance structures.

Aramids
Outstanding impact and ballistic resistance with high toughness and vibration damping.
Learn more
S-Glass
Higher strength and temperature resistance than E-Glass for demanding structural applications.

Sandwich Structures
Core Materials
Core materials are sandwiched between composite skins to create lightweight panels with exceptional stiffness and strength-to-weight ratios.
Advanced Concrete
Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC)
BFG International manufactures UHPC products using ForteKret™, its proprietary mix -- delivering exceptional compressive strength, durability, and architectural freedom for facades, urban furniture, and structural elements.
