Certified European GFRP Rebar for Durable Construction
Lightweight, corrosion‑free reinforcement engineered and manufactured in the Netherlands.
Stronger. Safer. Easier to build with.
High‑performance GFRP rebar for modern concrete construction.
FrisianBAR produces certified glass‑fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcement designed for long‑lasting, corrosion‑free structures. Manufactured in Friesland, our rebar meets strict European quality standards and offers a reliable alternative to traditional steel reinforcement..
Key Advantages
Corrosion‑Free — Will not rust, even in aggressive environments.
4× Lighter Than Steel — Faster handling, reduced transport costs, easier installation.
High Tensile Strength — Excellent mechanical performance for structural and non‑structural applications.
Thermally Stable — Low thermal conductivity reduces cracking risks.
Non‑Conductive & Non‑Magnetic — Ideal for electrical, medical, and sensitive infrastructure.
Long Service Life — Designed for durable, maintenance‑free concrete structures.
Because GFRP doesn’t corrode, your concrete stays intact for up to 100 years without maintenance. This reduces long‑term costs and lowers your project’s carbon footprint.
With full rebar certification, FrisianBAR helps construction professionals meet today’s sustainability and performance standards.

How does GFRP rebar compare to steel?
Corrosion‑Free Reinforcement for Long‑Lasting Concrete
It’s a steel problem
GFRP rebar is one of Europe’s fastest‑growing composite reinforcement technologies, offering a fully corrosion‑free alternative to steel. With global adoption rising over 10% per year, it has become a proven, mainstream solution for durable concrete structures.Modern durability studies show that concrete rot is not a concrete problem. Remove the steel, and corrosion disappears.
GFRP composite rebar does not rust, corrode, or lose strength, even in marine, chemical, or high‑moisture environments. With a verified 100‑year service life, it significantly reduces maintenance and lifecycle costs.
Lower Costs, Higher Durability, Sustainable Performance with GFRP Rebar
Composite Rebar is rapidly becoming the only reinforcement material capable of meeting future sustainability standards, including the Environmental Cost Indicator (ECI/MKI) and the Environmental Performance of Buildings (EPB/MPG). Prefab concrete producers are adopting GFRP rebar to eliminate corrosion risks in floors, walls, and structural elements.
