Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) is a composite of high strength alpha gypsum reinforced with glassfibers that can be molded into any shape or size. Some of the benefits of GFRG are that it’s lightweight, superior strength and ease of installation. GFRG is ideal for interior application and is used in a range of architectural applications such as ceilings, column covers, decorative wall panels, domes, bulkheads, light coves, and much more.
GFRG is a cost effective panel that offers significant benefits:
- It requires minimal structural support when installing the panels making the installation process simpler and cost effective.
- The panels can be formed in to complex shapes expanding its usage significantly.
- The panels can be made in extra-large sizes.
- Plaster is normally cast in place at the job site, where as GFRG products are pre-made. All you need on the job site is installation. This makes deployment of GFRG products much simpler.
- GFRG requires little maintenance and, due to its strength it is resistant to high impacts.
- Due to the lightness of the material, shipping costs are minimized.
- GFRG can address any design intent specified at a lower cost than traditional materials.
Installation
MADE Composites has created unique install features for GFRG parts that make installation easier than competing products. An easy install will save you money, and on larger projects can reduce timelines by weeks.
