SFT-Bar®Mesh
SFT-Bar®Mesh for Concrete Reinforcement and Structural Strengthening
SFT-Bar®Mesh is an innovative Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) reinforcement solution designed for concrete construction and structural strengthening. Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and durable, it provides an efficient alternative to conventional steel mesh reinforcement.
Using advanced FRP technology, this composite material helps improve the durability and long-term performance of reinforced concrete structures while reducing the challenges associated with steel corrosion.
What Is SFT-Bar®Mesh?
SFT-Bar®Mesh is a fiberglass reinforcement grid developed for structural and construction applications. Unlike traditional steel mesh, which can deteriorate when exposed to moisture, chemicals, or harsh environmental conditions, GFRP reinforcement does not rust.
Its lightweight composition facilitates transportation, handling, and installation, making it a practical choice for construction professionals seeking efficient reinforcement solutions.
Key Benefits of GFRP Reinforcement Mesh
SFT-Bar®Mesh offers several advantages for modern construction projects:
- Corrosion Resistance: Helps prevent reinforcement deterioration caused by moisture, chlorides, and aggressive environments.
- Lightweight Construction: Easier to transport, position, and install compared to conventional steel mesh.
- High Tensile Strength: Provides reliable tensile reinforcement for appropriately designed concrete structures.
- Long-Term Durability: Helps reduce corrosion-related maintenance and repair requirements.
- Sustainable Construction: May contribute to longer service life and reduced material replacement, supporting sustainable infrastructure development.
Applications in Concrete Construction
SFT-Bar®Mesh is available in different configurations to accommodate specific structural requirements and applications.
Potential uses include concrete slabs, walls, pavements, precast elements, and structural rehabilitation projects, subject to engineering specifications.
The appropriate mesh type depends on project requirements, reinforcement design, and environmental exposure conditions.
For further information about composite reinforcement, consult the American Concrete Institute (ACI), which publishes technical guidance for fiber-reinforced polymer materials.

SFT-ARMesh
SFT-ARMesh for Exterior Wall Reinforcement
SFT-ARMesh is a high-performance alkali-resistant glass fiber mesh designed to strengthen exterior concrete wall surfaces and improve long-term durability. Its specialized composition provides effective reinforcement for cement-based materials exposed to demanding environmental conditions.
Benefits of SFT-ARMesh
This innovative fiber mesh offers several advantages for exterior wall applications:
- Crack Control: Helps minimize surface cracking caused by shrinkage and environmental stress.
- Enhanced Durability: Reinforces cement-based coatings and supports longer-lasting wall surfaces.
- Alkali Resistance: Designed to withstand the alkaline environment of cement-based materials.
- Lightweight Installation: Easy to handle and integrate into suitable reinforcement systems.
- Improved Surface Performance: Helps distribute stresses and reduce localized cracking.
Applications for Exterior Concrete Walls
SFT-ARMesh is suitable for reinforcing external concrete wall surfaces, cement-based renders, and protective coating systems where additional crack resistance is required.
Although it cannot completely eliminate cracking, it helps improve surface integrity and durability when properly installed.
