The construction and civil engineering industries face challenges such as labor shortages, aging infrastructure, and disaster preparedness. This is driving the need for effective reinforcing materials. Our alkali-resistant glass fiber, WizARG™, improves the durability of buildings and infrastructure while offering benefits like lightweight construction. This reduces transportation, construction, and handling time, lowering costs and easing the burden on workers. Resistant to rust and fire, WizARG™ is an ideal reinforcement material for long-lasting, reliable structures. With a track record spanning over 40 years, WizARG™ is trusted in construction and civil engineering projects worldwide.

Applications

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GRC)

Mixing alkali-resistant glass fiber into cement enhances both the strength and lightness of structures. This technique also allows for intricate design possibilities, making GRC a versatile solution in architecture and civil engineering. It is widely used for exterior walls, ceilings, roads, and soundproof barriers.
Our product lineup supports various construction methods. Chopped strand is ideal for the efficient premix method, while roving works well with the direct spray method, where mortar and glass fiber are applied directly using a spray gun.
