Fiberglass reinforcement involves embedding fine glass fibers into a material, like plastic or composite, to enhance its strength and durability. These glass fibers act like tiny, sturdy threads that distribute stress evenly, making the overall material more resistant to cracking, breaking, or deforming under load. It's commonly used in applications such as boat hulls, car parts, and construction materials because it significantly improves structural performance while remaining lightweight. The process ensures the composite material maintains flexibility where needed but becomes much stronger and more durable thanks to the reinforcing fibers.
