Our Projects
Since 1975, BFG’s architectural projects have been as diverse as they have been inspirational. Here is just a flavour of our extensive portfolio of work.
We are BFG
For over 40 years, BFG has been a global leader and pioneer in composite design, engineering and manufacturing, with over 2,000 people and 15 production facilities worldwide – and a total commitment to quality and innovation.
Landmark developmentsBFG has been reshaping city skylines across the world for the past 40 years, bringing to life previously unattainable architectural forms. We have created bespoke composites for a new generation of iconic buildings, from the Istighfar mosque in Singapore to the Aspire Tower in Doha.
|
Driven by innovationWe have made significant investment in international ventures spanning areas as diverse as wind energy, anti-ballistic composites and advanced compact wastewater purification. Our dedicated R&D centre in Strasbourg is working in partnership with universities, laboratories and designers to develop revolutionary new wastewater treatment technologies.
|
Global footprintWhat makes us genuinely different is our global footprint – and our proximity to you. BFG has fabrication facilities in Bahrain, France, Spain, USA, Brazil, China, India, the Philippines and South Africa, covering more than 100,000 sqm of manufacturing space which enables us to offer global sourcing, regionalised manufacturing, and localised delivery and installation of world-class composite solutions.
|
Serving the world’s leading architects and contractorsWe’ve worked in partnership with key players in architecture and infrastructure since we opened our doors in 1975. We’ve grown since then – in the scope and complexity of our services, and in the diversity of projects we inspire. We work with leading architects, consultants, contractors and governments around the world, delivering high-performance composites for facades and claddings, structural roofing systems, domes and ceilings.
|
Conception to completionAt BFG, we deliver the full life cycle of services: conceptualisation, modelling, iterative design development, systems and process engineering, value engineering, structural design, material and product development, testing, sampling, prototyping and product manufacture, all the way to delivery and installation.
|
Engineering excellenceOur team of over 100 talented and skilled engineers, backed by expert hands-on leadership, roots its design and engineering methodology in a wealth of experience in materials and processes. With over 40 years of project records and an accumulated database of material properties and test results, our engineers have decades of technical data and insights to draw on.
|
Environmental impactAt BFG, we are committed to sustainable development. FRP composites are a more environmentally friendly choice than traditional materials and have a lower life cycle cost. Our world class teams of architects, engineers, and researchers are leading the way by helping our clients to achieve LEED certification for their buildings.
