GFRC Offers Versatility in Surface Texture and Finish
Among its many benefits, GFRC is known for its versatility and design freedom. Imagine being able to work with a material that could be made to look like just about any type of natural or man-made material. After all, no two buildings are the same. Each structure has its own look, design, and style. With such a diverse range of architectural needs, it helps to have a construction material that can respond to all needs in terms of design challenges and requirements.
GFRC Surface Textures
Textures are an important element to a building because they provide depth and evoke feelings through touch. Because of the versatility that GFRC provides in terms of design freedom, almost any kind of texture can be achieved. This is why GFRC can be used for so many different types of architectural products and styles. Here are a few of the textures that can be created for your construction or remodeling project:
- Smooth
- Sandblasted
- Honed
- Exposed Aggregate
- Travertine
- Coral Stone
- Wood Grain
- Brick
- Terra Cotta
- Carved Details
If you do not see the texture you are looking for on this list, contact Stromberg’s and tell is your project needs.
GFRC Finishes
A finish is something that is exactly as it sounds – it finishes off an element of a building or architectural feature. A finish is typically a paint or stain, but sometimes it is a glaze, depending on the type of look you are trying to achieve.
Stromberg Architectural offers many types of finishes to complete the look for your GFRC-based architectural product. You can have it custom pre-painted with any number of finishes or you can order it so that it is ready to be painted by your construction or remodeling team. The available finishes also include numerous concrete and antiquing stains or custom hot glaze finishes that create the look of terra cotta or glazed tile.
