10 public buildings showcasing the range and elegance of GFRC rainscreens

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC or GRC) is a lightweight, durable composite of cement reinforced with glass fibers.

Powder pigments may be used within GFRC mixes to achieve specific color effects. Paints and sealers can also be applied to GFRC for either increased protection or a wider range of color choices. Clear coatings may be applied to panels to redu... More
