Pultruded GFRP profiles, like other composite materials, have emerged as an alternative to metal, wood and plastic products. Their rapid widespread adoption shows that these products fully meet consumer expectations.
The main advantages include:
Many of these advantages make it possible to save on product storage and delivery, as well as on construction and the restoration or retrofitting of structures.
All this has made it possible to use these products in a wide range of fields:
As you can see, there are a great many current and potential buyers. With proper sales organization, production will have a full workload.
Below you can see the structure of the line used to manufacture the material. Each customer can choose the equipment configuration.
Future producers should take the following features into account:

To produce a high-quality composite GFRP profile that meets all GOST requirements, it is essential to use proven, certified technology developed by professionals. Our company has its own laboratory specializing in research and development of composite materials.
The research laboratory at our company is headed by Pavel Vyacheslavovich Nikolaev.
- Doctor of Chemical Sciences and professor at the Department of Chemistry and Technology of High-Molecular Compounds at Ivanovo State University of Chemistry and Technology (ISUCT).
This is how Pavel Vyacheslavovich describes his work:
Since 1973, my research interests have included epoxy oligomers and composite materials based on them. Since 2012, I have headed the laboratory of the Ivanovo Mechanical Plant research and production company. Manufacturing construction materials is a huge responsibility: peoples health and even lives are at stake, so the technology must be approached with due care.
Running the laboratory required applying the knowledge and experience I accumulated over more than 40 years of scientific work. Product quality, high output, and environmentally responsible production are the main priorities in the laboratory technology development.

GFRP outperforms metal in every key parameter.
Composite plastic does not rust, is stronger and less expensive than steel, and is four times lighter. Glass-fiber-reinforced plastic is dielectric and has low thermal conductivity.
These and other properties make it an excellent material that is indispensable in construction.
Pultrusion of GFRP profiles makes it possible to produce profiles of any cross-section, type, purpose, size, and color by changing the settings of the same line. This includes all profile types, cross-sections, and linear dimensions used in construction — solid and hollow profiles analogous to metal products: rectangles, squares, round tubes, channels, beams, T-sections, I-beams, U-, T-, F-, W-, and S-shaped profiles, angles, rods, and strips or plates.
GFRP profile production does not require a large factory, heavy melting, casting, rolling, or forging equipment, powerful lifting mechanisms, or heavy-duty transport for delivery.
Compared with steel, and especially with wood, GFRP structures have a very long service life and minimal water absorption. They are resistant to ultraviolet radiation, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Adding UV-blocking pigments to the binder eliminates the cost of protective painting and other operating expenses.
In many applications, metal used in construction can and should be replaced with durable, lightweight, and affordable GFRP.
Power supply and communications: supports, poles, and masts.
Construction of industrial and residential buildings: supports, piles, posts, floor structures, battens, partitions, and frames.
Replacing light-gauge steel frames with plastic frames in prefabricated residential and industrial buildings increases service life and reduces heating costs by eliminating thermal bridges.
Finishing and facades: starter and guide mounting profiles for composite plastic panels, lining, drywall, polycarbonate, and more.
Fences, stairs, ramps, bridges, children's playgrounds, greenhouses, and anything else that human imagination can create.
I had long dreamed of starting my own fiberglass production business in Iraq. The IMZ team explained every aspect of the production process and showed me videos of the plant and its products. I was impressed. We ordered the equipment and started production a month and a half later. It is profitable. I highly recommend it.
I am very pleased with our cooperation with NPO Zvezda. We have no complaints about delivery or assembly: everything was completed on time and to a high standard. All documents, certificates, technical specifications, the business plan, and test results were provided immediately.
I spent a long time deciding which supplier to work with and chose NPO Zvezda. They had never let us down before. The machine was delivered and installed on time, everything was explained and tested. I am happy with my purchase; now it is up to me.
We have been working with construction materials for more than 12 years. We decided to start manufacturing composite rebar. IMZ was selected as the equipment supplier "IMZ". We first ordered a rebar production line and then expanded with mesh and profile lines. IMZ has proven to be a reliable and responsible partner that guarantees product quality.
I had always wanted to start my own business, but every option required a lot of money. Then I saw an advertisement for a composite rebar production line. No special expertise was required; the technology and suppliers are provided. I chose the SPA-2 line, and it has fully met my expectations. I am considering further expansion.
We would like to thank IMZ for implementing our production modernization project. The aim was to increase output and bring quality in line with GOST standards. This success was achieved thanks to the company highly qualified specialists and prompt resolution of the assigned tasks.
Composite materials have long been recognized in developed countries and are used successfully by builders.
The construction market is vast. High-quality composite GFRP profiles have a wide range of applications and are in high demand.
GFRP and BFRP composite materials are indispensable for constructing and repairing all types of foundations and walls of buildings of any height. GFRP profiles are lighter and less expensive than steel profiles and are often stronger. GFRP profiles are especially suitable and necessary for structures operating in areas with high humidity and chemically aggressive environments.
You can purchase our GFRP composite profile production line anywhere in Russia, including: Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Ivanovo, Novosibirsk and other locations.
