The fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars market is expected to grow from US$ 215.88 million in 2021 to US$ 421.02 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.2% from 2022 to 2028.
As concrete is strong in compression and weak in tension, it is typically strengthened to create a building material that is strong in tension and compression. This reinforcement conventionally consists of steel due to its low cost, high strength, and high elasticity. However, steel corrosion could cost governments and asset owners billions of dollars in maintenance costs to replace or repair aging infrastructure. There are few alternatives for concrete reinforcing materials that can be used to prevent corrosion. For example, some manufacturers offer stainless steel rebars; however, fiber reinforced polymer rebar can serve as a non-corrosive alternative to conventional steel rebar for concrete reinforcement. These FRP rebars are made with the combination of polymer matrix with glass, carbon, or basalt fibers. These materials don't rust, are much lighter than steel, do not transmit heat, and are nearly four times stronger in tension. The anti-corrosion ability makes fiber reinforced polymer the best alternative for various construction applications such as retaining walls, piers, jetties, quays, caissons, decks, bulkheads, pilings, canals, offshore platforms, swimming pools, and aquariums.
Furthermore, in electromagnetically sensitive applications, glass and polymer nonconductive properties of FRP rebars won't transmit current, attract lightning strikes or interfere with the operation of nearby electrical devices. That makes fiber reinforced polymer a safer alternative to steel in aluminum and copper smelting plants, airport towers, nuclear power plants, specialized military structures, electrical and phone transmission towers, manholes containing electrical or phone equipment, and hospitals with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment.
