Rebarmat: Composite GFRP Rebars Manufacturer for Tomorrow’s Infrastructure

REBARMAT® GFRP Rebars are lightweight reinforcement bars that offer exceptional strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional reinforcement bars.
REBARMAT® is designed to meet the needs of challenging applications that demand high mechanical stability and corrosion resistance.

REBARMAT® GFRP Rebars offer various advantages, including unique properties and economic benefits such as:

icon-1
UP TO 50% ECONOMY

By replacing common metal rebar with modern composite rebar, you can secure savings of up to 50% from your overall costs, including significantly reducing maintenance and service life costs. Up to 4X savings in transport costs due to 75% lower deadweight and cost reduction of structures through minimal requirements for concrete covering.

icon-2
STRENGTH & RELIABILITY

The composite rebar has a tensile strength 3-4x greater than conventional reinforcement bars made of unalloyed steel and stainless steel. Tested according to ISO 10406-1, due to this quality, it is possible to use a smaller diameter in certain application.

icon-3
SUSTAINABLE & DURABLE

Unlike metal and other analogs, the composite rebar is highly resistant to chemical treatments and corrosion, so its service life is at least 100 years. Significant reduction in maintenance and service life costs compared to conventional steel rebars.

icon-4
EASY SHIPPING

Rebar’s small diameter and light weight allows it to be transported with exceptional ease, be it in a trunk of a car for a residential house or in an HGV that can deliver up to 150km of our rebar.

icon-5
NON CONDUCTIVE

Composite rebar doesn’t cause radio interference, magnetise, or conduct electricity. It also has low heat conductivity, which reduces thermal bridges, and is easy to machine without damaging tools or machinery.

icon-6
EASY INSTALLATION

Rebar’s light weight and easy transportation properties allows for a faster installation process to reinforce your building projects. Minimise deadweight of concrete structures and permit filigree structures.

Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer for High-Demand Applications

REBARMAT® FRP Rebars are specifically designed for challenging environments where reinforcement bars must withstand continuous mechanical and corrosive stresses. These high-performance bars are equipped with exceptional properties that make them ideal for such demanding applications. For instance:

MARINE-BASED OFFSHORE WIND

Rebarmat is highly effective in the construction of marine-based offshore and onshore wind turbines. It offers several advantages, including its lightweight nature, making it ideal for floating offshore wind systems, and a reduced concrete cover requirement of over 20%, leading to significant carbon footprint savings.

CIVIL CONSTRUCTION

Used in construction of civil and industrial facilities, more specifically to reinforce the elements of concrete structures and foundations, especially in sub-zero ground level.

ROAD CONSTRUCTION

Road structures, bridge support structures, tunnel structures, railway structures, airport structures, cliff reinforcement anchors, noise barrier, road ramps, road decks.

HYDROTECHNICS

Water treatment facilities, sluices, seawalls, flood barriers, water dams, reinforcement of river banks, reservoirs, water harbors, tidal barrages, mooring platforms, port facilities, and reinforced concrete channels.

PRECAST TECHNOLOGY

Lightweight material for core-insulated double walls, sandwich elements, solid concrete panels and facade elements with high quality design surfaces. Concrete preformed structures in tunnel construction, sewer pipes, shaft accesses, concrete sleepers

AGRO INDUSTRY

Garden structures, polytunnels, structures for plant support, arcs and frames, gazebos, pergolas, garden poles, electric fences, decorative fences, and wooden fence posts – composite reinforcement is suitable for all these structures and many more.

about us

REBARMAT® has been created by a team of experts with years of experience in construction industry.

After researching the market, we realised that the conventional version of metal rebar, that is used more often thus far, lacks many advantages. This led us to begin our extensive search for alternative options resulting in establishing a production plant which uses effective technology for the manufacturing of composite reinforcement, that boasts these much-needed advantages compared to steel.

Based on 2000 square meters we have created our own production and warehouse premises with highly modern equipment. Manufactured in Latvia to high European standards, our products are made in accordance to ISO 10406-1:2015. Independent from external circumstances and using only European materials from trusted partners, we produce around 6.5 million meters of composite rebar per year in our factory powered by solar electricity.
