WHY IS BFRP REBAR GREAT FOR MRI CENTERS AND DATA BUILDINGS?

The fact that BFRP Rebar is nonconducting makes basalt rebar a good option for buildings that house MRIs or data-intensive operations. Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rebar( BFRP Rebar ) does not conduct electricity or induce fields when exposed to Radiofrequency Energy. Compared to other types of rebar, basalt fiber has excellent non-conductive and electromagnetic properties, and can be widely used in power and radar and other military and civil engineering. The fact that BFRP Rebar is nonconducting makes basalt rebar a good option for buildings that house MRIs or data-intensive operations. At Arab Basalt Fiber Company, we produce BFRP Rebar and We envision a world where all concrete is strengthened with sustainable & eco-friendly material such as basalt fiber composites.
