BFRP Rebar has less than 1/10th the carbon footprint of steel Rebar. It has the lowest environmental impact compared with other fiber reinforced rebar, Comparing BFRP Rebar production to steel; it reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 5.24 tons of coal equivalent per ton.
Basalt fiber is a strengthening material for structural concrete members through various experimental works for durability and flexural strengthening.
the composite of basalt continuous fiber and various kinds of resin has stronger bonding strength than glass fiber and carbon fiber
Good promise for the construction industry
Using the latest generation technology
Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) rebar is a new technology that holds good promise for the construction industry. Basalt rock is heated to a molten stage and formed into the fibers you see at the lower part of the photo. Then they are mixed with epoxy resins and molded into the rebar shown in the same photo.
Environmentally Friendly
Basalt fibers are not toxic to water or air, do not react with any of the concrete components, and have a very high chemical resistance. These fibers are also considerably inexpensive when compared to fibers such as S-glass, carbon and aramids used in concrete. Read More About Us
Good promise for the construction industry
Using the latest generation technology
The Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rebar can be used in many different applications and can be used in areas where there is an extreme amount of exposure to water, including bridges, dams, and canals. The BFRP Rebar is also suitable for use in other environments where there is a high risk of corrosion, such as refineries, chemical plants, power stations, and other industrial facilities.
The Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rebar is a natural fiber-reinforced concrete material. It is made from basalt, which is a naturally occurring volcanic rock. It is a very strong, durable, and environmentally friendly material. The basalt fibers in the BFRP Rebar are extremely strong and help to add strength to the concrete.
ARAB BASALT FIBER COMPANY

of basalt fiber
basalt fiber has good mechanical properties
The results show that: compared with glass fiber, carbon fiber, and aramid fiber, basalt fiber has good mechanical properties, acid-alkali resistance, excellent electrical properties, high wave permeability, non-conductive, and excellent sound insulation and insulation performance.
chemical and thermal stability
Basalt fiber has specific ranges of use due to its properties. As basalt fiber is characterized by chemical and thermal stability, this material can be used in areas where the use of other materials is inefficient.
producing waterproof materials
For example, basalt fiber can be used in production of geo textiles, reinforcing materials, high-temperature filters, materials for automobile industry, reinforcing nets, composite materials, for reinforcing concrete building structures and road asphaltic-concrete pavements and for producing waterproof materials.
A single step extraction
Continuous Basalt Fibre (CBF)
Continuous Basalt Fibre (CBF) in a form of roving is produced by a single step extraction from basaltic rock melt without use of any chemicals. Resulting semi product basalt roving is processed into Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) Rebar.
Advantages
Of Basalt Material
Using the latest generation technology
- Does not require addition of special additives in production
- Non-hazardous and non-toxic when in contact with air, water or other chemicals
- Excellent anti-seawater corrosion properties
- Much lighter than steel
- Higher tensile strength than steel
- Environmentally friendly
- avoid waste disposal problems
- Less energy required for basalt fibre production compared to steel production
World prices of Basalt FRP average out at $6.5 per kg according to direct surveys. Based on the concept of replacing steel bar the market growth for BFRP will be 18% per year.
Sales Potential
Sales potential in the UAE, KSA and gulf region is enormous due to a drive toward carbon neutrality
Market Growth
The basalt fiber market is projected to grow from 227 million USD in 2019 to 397 million USD by 2024
Increase in Demand
The market is growing due to the high demand from construction & infrastructure, automotive & transportation, and Electrical & Electronics industries
Competition With Matured Products
Although basalt fiber has superior properties compared to E-glass fiber and S-glass fiber, it is not used commercially in many applications
Growing adoption of enviromently friendly material
The demand for environmentally friendly and easily recyclable fiber and fiber reinforced composites products is increasing due to new stringent government rules and regulations.
Sales Potential
Sales potential in the UAE, KSA and gulf region is enormous due to a drive toward carbon neutrality
Promising Future
The potential in the UAE, KSA and gulf region is enormous due to a drive toward carbon neutrality
