Why GFRP?

High Strength

GFRP has a very high strength to weight ratio

Lightweight

Low weights of 2 to 4 lbs. per square foot means faster installation, less structural framing, and lower shipping costs

Resistance

Resists salt water, chemicals, and the environment - unaffected by acid rain, salts, and most chemicals

Seamless Construction

Domes and cupolas are resined together to form a one-piece, watertight structure Able to Mold Complex Shapes Virtually any shape or form can be molded

Low Maintenance

Research shows no loss of laminate properties after 30 years

Durability

Stromberg GFRP stood up to category 5 hurricane Floyd with no damage, while nearby structures were destroyed
