About PROForms®
Fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) is one of the strongest, most durable building materials available today. It’s nonconductive, dimensionally stable and extremely low maintenance. It offers the strength of steel at a fraction of the weight for efficient transportation and installation. And unlike traditional materials like wood, steel and aluminum, FRP won’t rust, corrode, warp, rot, decay or attract insect damage — so it’s ideal for harsh environments.
In short, it’s a different way to solve your design challenges — one that can reduce costs and improve long-term performance. To maximize these benefits, however, it’s best to design with the properties of FRP in mind from the start. Our engineers and fabricators can help, so contact us with your questions.
