GFRC — glass-fibre reinforced concrete — Ventilated facades (VF)
GFRC — facade cladding in glass-fibre reinforced concrete, and small architectural forms. GFRC, combined with small architectural forms, suits facades with complex geometry, relief, and volumetric elements, creating a distinctive architectural identity for a building.
Glass-fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) is a facade and small-architectural-form material that creates volumetric elements, reliefs, cornices, panels, decorative surrounds, and complex geometry. It's especially valuable where a facade needs a distinctive architectural character and standard flat materials aren't enough.
GFRC can be used for facade cladding, entrance areas, columns, decorative bands, parapets, portals, panels, and other elements. The material replicates massive architectural details while offering far more freedom of form and sculptural expression.
For the client, GFRC is a tool for creating a distinctive, recognizable building. It works with volume as much as color: the facade gains depth, sculptural quality, and expressiveness, while small architectural forms bring the whole project to a consistent, premium standard.
