Inspired by Innovation, Driven by Excellence

Building and Construction Materials

Fiberglass fabrics are used as structural reinforcement for a variety of applications in the construction industry and as reinforcement for various alternative energy components. Wind turbine blades, solar panels, thermal cells, and other green technology solutions incorporate fiberglass fabrics for added strength and fire resistance. Woven fiberglass is an ideal building material where fire and building code requirements are stringent. Combined with our proprietary finishes, BGF’s line of fabrics for the construction and alternative energy industries are consistently high in quality, strength, and durability.
