Glass-fibre reinforced plastic
Glass-fibre reinforced plastic is an extremely robust plastic that gains its strength by embedding glass fibres. These glass fibres can be incorporated in various forms: short glass fibres, long glass fibres or even cut mats are common types of reinforcement.
Through these processing techniques, the plastic becomes extremely resilient and is ideal for applications where high strength and stability are required. The combination of plastic and glass fibres gives the material its characteristic properties, which make it an important material in many industries and sectors.
