Fiberglass Rebar from Energywise Sustainable Products LLC

Build stronger, longer-lasting ICF walls with fiberglass rebar. Energywise Sustainable Products offers MST-BAR® and SFT-Bar®, two leading fiberglass rebar options that deliver significant advantages over traditional steel rebar for ICF construction:

Advantages of ​SFT-Bar® and MST-Bar®

• Lower Carbon Footprint: Reduces CO2 emissions by 43% during production compared to steel rebar.
• Lighter rebar, lighter footprint: Reduced weight means fewer trucks required for transport = lower CO2 emissions 
• Longer Lifespan: Corrosion resistance extends the life for fiberglass vs steel
• Higher Thermal Resistance: The non-conductive properties allow concrete decks outside of concrete floors to be thermally more efficient by not transmitting cold into the structure. Thus an efficient thermal break of the concrete material can be attained without compromising the structural integrity. 
• Reduced Labor Costs: Up to 50% labor savings factor due to the lower weight of the bar creating less labor fatigue & faster installation times compared to traditional steel rebar.
• Cost Effective: Eliminates the need for costly waterproofing agents and epoxy coating required for rust-prone steel rebar.
• Improved Fatigue Resistance: Fiberglass rebar may offer better resistance to cracking under stress, potentially extending the lifespan of your ICF structure.
  
• Enhanced Thermal Performance: Since fiberglass is a poor conductor of heat and cold compared to steel, it helps maintain the superior thermal insulation properties of ICF walls.
