Pultrax GFRP Rebar: Compliant with Mexican and International Standards
Christopher Lynn

Pultrax manufactures glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar in strict compliance with both Mexican and international standards that define quality, strength, and durability for structural reinforcement in concrete.

Our production process, resin systems, and fiber alignment meet the technical requirements established by:

  • NMX-C-560-1-ONNCCE-2019Construction Industry – Reinforcement of Concrete with Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) – Test Methods – Part 1: FRP Bars and Meshes (based on ISO 10406-1:2015)

  • ASTM D7957 / D7957MStandard Specification for GFRP Bars for Concrete Reinforcement

  • ACI 440.1RGuide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Reinforced with FRP Bars

  • ISO 10406-1Test Methods for Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement of Concrete

The NMX-C-560-1-ONNCCE-2019 standard is Mexico’s official reference for testing and evaluating FRP bars and meshes, ensuring compatibility with international norms and local construction requirements.

By aligning with these standards, Pultrax ensures that every bar is manufactured under controlled pultrusion pressure, precise resin ratios, and verified tensile and modulus properties.

This results in lightweight, corrosion-proof reinforcement that performs consistently across climates — from coastal regions to industrial zones — and provides long-term durability far beyond traditional steel rebar.

Pultrax is proud to bring this level of engineering compliance and reliability to the Mexican market:

Manufactured locally, compliant globally.
