WHY V-ROD?

*Lightweight and easier to handle & transport - Approximately 4x lighter than steel.
*Lower embodied energy vs steel = sustainable/green construction (70% of EE VS Steel).
*Tensile Strength outperforms and is superior to traditional rebar - 2.5x stronger then steel in tensile strength.
*Corrosion resistant - no rusting.
*Non-conductive, electrically/magnetically neutral V-ROD addresses any concerns with electromagnetic interference (EMI) in "healthy homes".
*Installation procedures remain the same as using steel.
*Canadian made.

*About V-ROD Fiberglass Rebar

V-ROD rebars are manufactured combining the pultrusion process and in-line sand coating process for superior surface bond strength. The FRP composite rebar is made from high strength glass fibers and resistant resin. The glass fibers impart strength to the rod while the resin imparts excellent corrosion resistance properties in harsh chemical and alkaline environments. The company's manufacturing process meets ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards. In addition, in-house quality control tests are routinely performed along with tests performed by independent laboratories.
