Traditional infrastructure materials like concrete and steel were once the construction materials of choice. But their disadvantages include weight, high life-cycle costs, and long build times. Using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites can help solve all of those problems.

In this episode, Eric Ball and Darren Simmie from our Orenco Composites division explain how FRP composites are an ideal material for infrastructure projects. They describe the FRP manufacturing process and how composite materials have solved infrastructure problems for many businesses and communities.
