FRP
FRP, short for fibre-reinforced plastics, are innovative materials that are used in a wide variety of applications. These materials consist of a plastic matrix that is reinforced by fibres. The fibres can be made from various materials such as glass, carbon or aramid and give the plastic significantly improved strength and stiffness.
Through this combination of plastic matrix and fibre reinforcement, FRP are particularly light and yet extremely resilient. These properties make them an attractive choice for industries such as aerospace, automotive engineering, sports equipment manufacturing and construction. The use of FRP has steadily increased in recent years, as they help to reduce weight, improve energy efficiency and at the same time increase the performance and reliability of products.
