This document discusses the properties and applications of pultruded fiberglass materials. It notes that pultruded fiberglass has strength comparable to steel and aluminum but at a much lighter weight. It is durable, corrosion resistant, and has low thermal and electrical conductivity. The document outlines how pultruded fiberglass can be used in a variety of industrial applications and structures where these properties are beneficial. It suggests that the material allows for creative designs and finishes while providing long-lasting, maintenance-free performance.

1. Architectural Applications

2. Endless Possibilities
• To better understand the possibilities in
the use of or products, one has to first
understand its properties.

3. Fiberprofil material
• Pultrusion products
– Fiberglass and resins and/or polymers
create a high strength product capable for
use in numerous applications
– Our product, once completed, provides
durability and strength comparable to steel,
aluminum, wood and concrete

4. What is it like?
• The pultruded product is hard, much
harder than in other applications typical
of fiberglass, like in the fabrication of
boats or others.
• The high concentration of fiber (about
70%, varying on application) makes for
a lasting product

5. Properties
• Typical results show our products have
80% the strength of structural steel at
much less the weight (20%).
• Comparing loads, the lighter weight of
the product gives it a much stronger
strength to weight ratio.

6. Properties
• Our product is
comparable in
strength to structural
aluminum, but with
less weight again.
• Same applies to
strength to weight
ratios.

7. The biggest difference lies in
the product’s other
characteristics
• Our product is corrosion free
• Our product does has extremely low
electrical conductivity
• Little heat or cold transference
• Invisible to electromagnetic forces.

8. What does this mean to my
project?
• Fiberprofil materials are ideal for many
applications where these factors affect
the life and use of the project.
• Maintenance-free life
• In high moisture, salt or chemical areas
our product has NO comparables.
• Product looks and works well from the
install day to many years later.

9. Easier to use and install
• Not only does the product show clear
advantages in its life, but also in
reduced installation costs
• NO welding, no painting, no big cranes
and heavy equipment in comparison to
other materials
• Fiberprofil materials are easy to cut or
modify on site.

10. A few areas where we excel

11. Achieve unconventional
results
• In terms of use and life the qualities are far
superior, but what about how it looks?
• Our colors are made to your selection
• Colors are through and through
• UV stable results
• Although not necessary in most cases, our
product can be painted with better results
than with metals

12. Be creative!
• Fiberprofil materials allow for superior
finishes and superior results in short
and long term situations

13. Be creative!

14. Be creative!
Improve building finishes and esthetics,
protect equipment

15. Make the best use
Cover equipment and give new life to
tired finishes

16. Make exposed elements last
• Exposed beams, railings, covers

17. Add lightweight structures
• Finish your projects with distinction
• Any structural shape for function or
design

18. Form and function can coexist
• Any drab building can be finished to
look better and provide maintenance
free properties

19. Cover and protect, beautify
• Provide solutions! Remember our
product is invisible to microwaves and
cell phone signals

20. Any structure
• Any size

21. Anywhere you would use
metal
• But might be concerned about its life

22. Corrosion a problem?

23. In difficult conditions and
terrain

24. But I want it to look like metal
• It can
