Fibr’s Innovative Concrete Reinforcement: Revolutionizing Data Center Construction
In today’s fast-paced world of data centers, building durable, safe, and sustainable infrastructure is essential. Fibr develops and manufactures fiberglass concrete reinforcement specially designed to meet the unique demands of data centers.
Unlike traditional steel, Fibr’s fiberglass reinforcement is completely non-conductive, eliminating risks associated with electrical conductivity in concrete structures. This crucial property protects sensitive electronic equipment from stray currents and electromagnetic interference common in data centers. By using non-conductive reinforcement, the complexity and extent of grounding requirements can be significantly reduced, leading to safer installations, lower labor demands, and shorter project timelines.
Our product offers double the tensile strength of steel, providing superior structural integrity while being 75% lighter. The significant weight reduction simplifies transportation and handling, reducing the need for cranes and allowing installation crews to work more efficiently. As a result, installation times can be reduced by approximately 10%.
The absence of welding further improves safety by eliminating risks of sparks and fire, and reduces injury chances on site. Combined with fewer crane lifts and lighter materials, this allows construction crews to be smaller by 25 to 30%, broadening access to available skilled labor and reducing labor costs.
These benefits contribute to an overall cost reduction of 10-20% through fewer laborers, streamlined processes, and faster timelines.
Beyond performance and cost, Fibr’s fiberglass reinforcement supports sustainability goals by cutting CO₂ emissions by more than 50% compared to steel. Its corrosion resistance also means less concrete degradation and significantly lower maintenance costs over the life of the structure.
Leading industry players like STACK Infrastructure have already adopted fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials in their data centers, reducing embodied carbon and construction expenses while maintaining high quality.
As data centers continue to evolve, Fibr’s fiberglass concrete reinforcement offers a safer, lighter, and greener alternative to traditional steel — engineered for the future.
