Why use GFRC
GFRC is a concrete that uses glass fibers for reinforcement instead of steel, it is light, strong, weather resistant, The use of glass fiber instead of steel also means that it will not rust and it will do will in salty and high moisture environments, and also GFRC does not burn and will protect the material behind it from the heat of the flame.
