H-BAU Technik FIBERNOX® V-ROD construction elements are concrete reinforcement bars made of ecologically sustainable fibre composite material consisting of glass fibre strands and vinyl ester resin. We sell this reinforcement product as straight bars, curved bars of various shapes and as bars with end anchors. Amongst other benefits, they are impressively resistant to corrosion and alkalis, are non-magnetic and have electrically and thermally insulating. Their low weight makes them suitable for the construction of slender concrete components only a few centimetres thick. The areas of application range from precast, tunnel and bridge construction to the construction of hospitals or research facilities.
Advantages
