About BasaFlex™:
BasaFlex™ is a composite material bar, which is the latest and sustainable alternative to steel in concrete bars. BasaFlex™ aims to solve the corrosion problems associated with typical steel bars, thereby adding intrinsic value to concrete structures, saving time and money during the entire life cycle of concrete structures. BasaFlex™ has a design life of 100 years; it is non-corrosive; it is only 25% of the weight of steel, but its strength-to-weight ratio is 2.5 times larger; it is neither conductive nor thermally conductive; and it is easy to use and safer on the job site. Due to its core advantages and competitive price advantages, Basanite believes that BasaFlex™ will become the first choice for concrete reinforcement in the construction industry.
As the United States begins to rebuild and repair bridges, tunnels, highways, dams, ports, buildings and other structures, Basanite is leading a new generation of infrastructure technology with its ability to supply well-designed, green and sustainable concrete reinforcement products . The construction industry clearly understands the many advantages of all Basanite basalt fiber-based products, each of which represents the best value proposition for the future.
