What is GFRC?

Glass Fiber Reinforced Cement (GFRC) is a category of cementitious composite materials made from:

  • Portland cement

  • Sand

  • Water

  • Copolymer and admixtures

  • Fiberglass

generally cast into a thin laminar “skin.”

Why BAC?

Buffalo Architectural Casting fabricates GFRC using a hand-laid method, allowing us to capture complicated shapes in extremely high-detail.

Because of our background in historic preservation, we specialize in matching historic masonry units (terracotta, limestone, sandstone, and many more finishes including other stone, metals, wood, etc.)

In addition to utilizing LiDar scanning technology, making molds of existing units in-situ, and repairing damaged units for replication, we excel in sculpting original ornamentation from historic photographs, extrapolating from very minimal information.

Buffalo Architectural Casting is the right choice of GFRC fabricator for challenging projects which require extra attention to detail, and the utmost fidelity.
