MRG Composites
The “Machine Retail Group” (MRG) was established in 2007. The company is actively engaged in the introduction of modern equipment in the industrial complex of Russia and India. MRG Composites specializes in the production of GFRP (Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymers) Rebars since 2007. Our Rebars carry high tensile strength and are 2 times stronger and 4 times lighter than iron Rebars. It is currently East Africa, UAE, & India’s most cost- effective material for structural and road construction projects. Two brothers, Neel Vaya and Bhavik Vaya along with Amit Gangurde set their entrepreneurial journey and started MRG- Composites India operations in early 2019. There has been no looking back since then. Today, within a short span despite the pandemic, MRG-Composites India has achieved the remarkable feat of becoming India’s Largest Manufacturer & Supplier of GFRP Rebars as well as becoming India’s No. 1 selling GFRP rebars brand
Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer - GFRP Rebar
GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers) Rebars are the best composite rebar for construction material and building material. The use of GFRP composites rebars increased very well in the construction business. Our Rebars are two times stronger and 1/4 lighter than steel. Our rebars include high-quality corrosion-resistant epoxy resin that increases the lifespan of a concrete structure. GFRP Rebar is made of Glass Fiber and Polymer Rebar. Fiber Glass protects polymer resin.
MRG Composite Rebar has the best GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers) rebar price in India. We are the leading GFRP rebar manufacturer in India.

Yes, you can use MRG GFRP Rebars together with metal rebars in some cases where it is necessary.
Composite reinforcement is fire resistant up to 600 degrees Celsius. Once the temperature exceeds 600 degrees Celsius, the compound that binds the composite reinforcement fibers softens. Composite reinforcement does not burn directly, and studies show that structures are sustainable during a fire.
No, as the mechanical properties of GFRP Rebars are elastic, thus it does not allow you to bend the material on site. However, you can get your desired bend/curved elements prefabricated as per your requirement.
