Formulated to assist designers in achieving ever richer and more articulated buildings, STUCCHITALIA follows with ever-increasing interest the GRC, a composite material made of concrete from very highly mechanically resistant selected cements, reinforced with alkali-resistant glass fibre, which soon became the chosen product for particularly elaborate and richly detailed models, and “open” or perforated work, whether for interiors or exteriors, thanks to its manifold characteristics.
GRC is incombustible, ideal for protective cases, insoluble and water-repellent even in the case of underwater installations.
GRC has excellent chemical resistance for use in particularly aggressive environments, is characterised by an elevated resistance to abrasions, to atmospheric agents and to UV rays for panelling and decorative façades.
Furthermore, GRC has considerable mechanical resistance combined with unusual lightness for fast assembling of continuous or composite façades, high workability with oxides, grit, powders and surface inert elements for impressive finishes and simulation.
