Industries We Serve

Fiberweb — Building strength, one fiber at a time

Marine

  • Boat Hulls and Decks: Fiberglass is a primary material for boat construction, offering a lightweight, strong, and corrosion-resistant alternative to wood or steel. Its ability to be molded into complex shapes allows for efficient and aesthetically pleasing designs.
  •  
  • Fender Systems: Fiberglass fender systems protect both ships and dock structures during berthing by absorbing impact and preventing damage. They are highly durable and require less maintenance than traditional materials.
  •  
  • Gratings and Walkways: In ports and shipyards, fiberglass gratings and walkways provide safe, slip-resistant surfaces that are highly resistant to saltwater, chemicals, and heavy foot traffic.
  •  
  • Protective Covers and Enclosures: Fiberglass is used for covers, shelters, and canopies to shield sensitive equipment from harsh marine elements, including UV rays, saltwater, and chemicals.
  •  
  • Electrical Enclosures: Its non-conductive property makes fiberglass suitable for electrical enclosures housing control panels, junction boxes, and lighting fixtures in marine environments.
  •  

Wind & Energy

  • Wind Turbine Blades: Fiberglass is a critical reinforcement material for wind turbine blades due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent fatigue resistance, design flexibility, and resistance to corrosion. Lighter blades reduce mechanical stress and improve turbine performance and efficiency.
  •  
  • Nacelles and Other Components: Fiberglass is also used in the manufacturing of nacelles (the housing that contains the generating components of a wind turbine) and other critical parts, ensuring longevity and optimal energy generation.
  •  
  • Access Structures: Ladders and platforms within wind power facilities often utilize fiberglass composites for their durability and lack of corrosion.
  •  
  • Hydroelectric Power: Composites like fiberglass can enhance the construction and repair of turbines and lock gates in hydropower generation, offering lightweight and durable solutions with improved hydrodynamic performance.
  •  
  •  
  • Structural Components: Fiberglass reinforced plastics (GFRP) are used for structural components like bumper beams, providing strength, durability, and high-impact energy-absorbing capacity while reducing weight.
  •  
  • Interior Components: Smaller functional parts like dashboard needles, wiring, and even components like timing belts and V-belts (where glass strings are impregnated with rubber for reinforcement) utilize fiberglass.
  •  
  • Brake Pads and Clutches: Fiberglass’s abrasion resistance makes it suitable for reinforcing brake pads and clutch disks.
  •  
  • Tires: Fiberglass is used in radial and bias-ply vehicle tire reinforcement to increase tread life and provide a softer ride.
  •  
  • Truck and Train Components: The outer body of some modern trains and city buses, as well as components for medium and heavy trucks (engine covers, bumpers, side skirts), are made from fiberglass due to its strength-to-weight ratio, smooth surface for aerodynamics, and fire resistance.
  •  

Automotive

  • Body Panels and Bumpers: Fiberglass is widely used for automotive body panels, especially in sports cars where weight reduction is crucial. It’s found in front and rear bumpers, hoods, and doors, offering excellent impact resistance and corrosion resistance.
  •  
  • Structural Components: Fiberglass reinforced plastics (GFRP) are used for structural components like bumper beams, providing strength, durability, and high-impact energy-absorbing capacity while reducing weight.

Pipes, Tanks, Grating

  • Corrosion-Resistant Piping Systems: Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) piping systems are extensively used in industries handling corrosive chemicals (e.g., chemical processing, oil and gas, wastewater treatment, pulp and paper, power generation). They offer superior corrosion resistance, lightweight construction, and a long service life compared to traditional materials.
  •  
  • Storage Tanks: Fiberglass tanks provide safe and durable containment for a wide range of substances, including chemicals, water, fertilizers, and even grain. Their resistance to corrosion, cracking, warping, and temperature fluctuations makes them ideal for harsh industrial and agricultural environments.
  •  
  • Grating: Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) grating is an excellent solution for walkways, platforms, and trench covers in environments exposed to chemicals, weather, and rust. It’s a cost-effective, corrosion-resistant alternative to metal or wood grating.
  •  
  • Insulation: Fiberglass products are engineered for pipe and tank insulation in demanding commercial and industrial applications, offering thermal performance, energy conservation, and condensation control.
  •  

Pools, Hot Tubs, Spas

  • Pool and Spa Shells: Fiberglass is a popular material for the shells of swimming pools, hot tubs, and spas. Its smooth, non-porous surface is resistant to staining, fading, algae growth, and requires significantly less maintenance and fewer chemicals compared to concrete or vinyl.
  •  
  • Durability and Longevity: Fiberglass shells are highly durable, resisting cracking and fading, and can withstand harsh weather conditions and extreme temperatures.
  •  
  • Quick Installation: Fiberglass pools and spas are pre-built in factories, allowing for much faster installation times compared to on-site constructed pools.
  •  
  • Energy Efficiency: Fiberglass is an excellent insulator, helping to retain heat in pools and spas, which reduces energy consumption for heating and lowers utility costs.
  •  
  • Design Flexibility: While pre-manufactured, fiberglass shells come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, offering design customization options.
  •  

Aerospace

  • Non-Structural Components: While carbon fiber is often preferred for primary structural components due to its superior strength and stiffness, fiberglass is used in the aerospace industry for non-structural parts, including interior components, ducting, and enclosures.
  •  
  • Weight Reduction: Fiberglass contributes to overall weight reduction in aircraft, which is crucial for improved fuel efficiency and performance.
  •  
  • Corrosion Resistance: Fiberglass components offer excellent corrosion resistance, which is a significant advantage over metallic parts, particularly in environments susceptible to moisture and other corrosive agents.
  •  
  • Electrical Insulation: Fiberglass is non-conductive, making it valuable for applications where electrical insulation is required, such as protective casings or panels for internally mounted antennas that need to allow radio signals to pass unimpeded.
  •  
  • Impact Resistance: Specific types of fiberglass, like S-2 glass, offer good impact resistance, making them suitable for certain aerospace applications.
  •  
  •  
  • Structural Components: Fiberglass reinforced plastics (GFRP) are used for structural components like bumper beams, providing strength, durability, and high-impact energy-absorbing capacity while reducing weight.

Our History

Lorem ipsum is a pseudo-Latin text used in web design typography layout and printing in place of English to emphasise design elements over content. It's also called placeholder text.It's a convenient tool for mock-ups.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC.
