Basalt Engineering, makers of Bastech Rebar

Building Construction

Overview

We are a US manufacturer of basalt fiber based products for reinforcing concrete, with our primarily product being basalt fiber (BFRP) rebar. Basalt fiber is created from volcanic rock. Our basalt rebar is 2.5x stronger, 5x lighter, noncorrosive (does not rust), nonconductive, and transparent to radio frequency and microwave as compared to traditional steel rebar. The manufacturing of our basalt fiber rebar reduces carbon emissions by 60% compared to manufacturing steel rebar. The sustained life of our product is 100 years as compared to 50 years with steel rebar and it can be recycled with concrete, unlike like steel rebar which requires the rebar to be removed prior to recycling. Our products are considered new technology in the concrete reinforcement industry, which has been around for over 135 years.
