FRP in Infrastructure

FRP Solutions are bound to disrupt the future of infrastructure & pulFORCaE is ready to serve you world-class solutions to meet the shift in the market. FRP is revolutionizing America's national energy grid, according to a new piece of legislation, Congress has put FRP Solutions at the forefront of America's dire need for new materials as we revitalize and create new infrastructure. The legislation goes on to highlight the need for new innovative materials like FRP & includes key points like:

• Reforms to existing highway programs to incentivize the use of innovative materials 
• Creation of an interagency task force for standards development for innovative composites 
• Authorization of a new Innovative Bridge Program at the Federal Highway Administration and Innovative Water Infrastructure Program at the Environmental Protection Agency, as well as the creation of “Innovative Material Innovation Hubs”

The benefits of FRP Composites are undeniable, corrosion resistance, ease of installation, extreme weather resilience and superior service life give FRP an edge over solutions of the past.

Lower Infrastructure Deployment Costs

FRPs are considerably lighter than traditional materials. This makes pultruded products easy and relatively inexpensive to transport as well as being far easier to deploy. Because of this, infrastructure deployment costs are significantly lower when using FRP composites like those manufactured at Tencom.

Lower Maintenance Costs

As well as their lowered production and deployment costs, maintenance costs are also significantly lower when using pultruded products. 

FRP composites are comparable in strength to steel and far more durable. They have an extremely high heat tolerance and do not corrode or degrade in extreme conditions. Because of this durability, there is a far lower replacement rate associated with FRP products and they don’t require nearly as much maintenance as products made with traditional materials.

Looking at the benefits of using FRPs, there is no doubt that products like pultruded glass fiber are the future of telecommunications.

With urbanization set to increase rapidly over the next five decades and the IoT and 5G connectivity forecasted to be in our lives on a daily basis, there is no doubt that finding cost-effective materials that are strong, durable, long-lasting, lightweight and adhere to technological requirements is imperative to a sustainable, efficient future.

For any telecommunications project requiring a material that meets stringent technical specifications and is cost-effective, durable and easy to manufacture, FRPs are an excellent solution.
