CTP COMPOSITE REINFORCEMENT:
Sustainable Structural Strength

Ceylan Kompozit GFRP rebars are a superior alternative to traditional steel reinforcement. These glass fiber–reinforced rebars stand out with high tensile strength, exceptional corrosion resistance, and insulating properties. In harsh environments (marine structures, chemical plants), they extend service life while minimizing maintenance costs, offering sustainable and cost-effective solutions.

CTP construction reinforcements offered within Ceylan Kompozit are manufactured by impregnating glass fibers with resin, forming them into a ribbed structure using specialized techniques, and curing them through the pultrusion process. Thanks to this advanced technology, high-strength, long-lasting solutions that pose no risk of corrosion are provided for construction projects.

STRUCTURAL AND PHYSICAL SUPERIORITY

• +100 Years of Sustainability
Thanks to high chemical and complete corrosion resistance, it extends the life of structures and maintains performance for decades.

• High Tensile Strength
Exhibits up to 2.5 times higher tensile strength compared to steel reinforcement, providing superior durability to structures.

• Complete Corrosion Resistance
Provides full protection against external factors such as moisture, saltwater, and chlorides. With this feature, it is the safest solution for marine structures, ports, and bridges.

• Industrial Durability
Maintains structural integrity in harsh environments such as chemical storage, wastewater treatment, and agricultural facilities.

• Lightweight
Approximately 4 times lighter than steel, providing operational ease in logistics, transportation, and installation processes.

• Low Thermal and Electrical Conductivity
Its non-conductive structure offers a safe working environment during application and use in terms of occupational health and safety.

APPLICATION AND COST ADVANTAGES

• Logistics and Labor Savings
Its lightweight structure accelerates the installation process and provides significant savings in transportation and labor costs.

• Low Operating and Maintenance Costs
Maintenance-free structure and long service life minimize the total project cost.

• Dimensional Flexibility and Practicality
Can be produced in desired lengths according to project needs, enabling fast and practical installation on site.

• Environmentally Friendly
Stands out as a material suitable for sustainable building technologies and sensitive to human health and the environment.

ELECTRICAL AND MAGNETIC SAFETY

• Non-Conductive Structure
Provides complete safety in transformer centers, structures under high-voltage lines, and railway projects as it does not conduct electricity.

• Unaffected by Magnetic Fields
Does not respond to magnetic fields and does not interfere with device operation; this feature makes it safe for use in MRI rooms and areas with sensitive electronic systems.

Ceylan Composite reinforcement solutions are offered as a long-lasting and economical alternative with superior physical and mechanical properties, eliminating corrosion and high maintenance cost issues in reinforced concrete structures.

Transportation Infrastructure (Roads, Bridges, and Barriers)
• Provides full resistance against corrosion caused by de-icing salts, chlorine, and chemical components.
• While extending structural life, periodic maintenance costs are minimized.

Marine and Port Structures
• Thanks to its corrosion-resistant properties, it delivers high performance in coastal structures, piers, and seawalls exposed to saltwater and high humidity.

Wet Areas and Water Structures (Pools, Parking Areas, and Terraces)
• Prevents damage to the structure from chlorinated water, moisture, and de-icing chemicals.
• Cracking and deterioration are prevented, maintaining structural aesthetics and integrity.

Tunnel and Metro Projects
• Its structure can be easily cut by tunnel boring machines, providing practical solutions for temporary systems and on-site concrete.

Foundation and Basement Applications
• In areas with high groundwater levels or corrosive soil content, foundations and basement walls are protected against corrosion.
• Minimizes the risk of cracks in on-site concrete.

Dams and Critical Infrastructure
• With high tensile strength and durability, it is preferred to enhance structural reliability in large-scale water structures and energy infrastructure projects.
