HOW FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER (FRP) COMPARES
to Traditional Materials
LIGHTWEIGHT
Strongwell FRP weighs up to 75% less than steel and 30% less than aluminum – ideal when weight and performance counts.
CORROSION RESISTANT
Strongwell FRP is unaffected by moisture or immersion in water when sealed. Will not rust like metal and will not rot like wood.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Strongwell FRP is durable and impact resistant. It will not dent or deform like metals. Resists rot and corrostion, eliminating the need for constant maintenance.
SIMPLE FAB & INSTALL
FRP costs on average 20% less than steel to install with less down time, less, equipment, and less specialized labor.
