Prefabricated FRP components enable faster installation timelines
and reduce the need for welding, hot work, and specialized labor.
This streamlined construction process supports safer job sites,
improved scheduling efficiency, and stronger project
coordination aligned with Green Globes performance objectives.
Project Management
Advantic supports the Materials category by replacing traditional
steel with lightweight FRP systems that reduce embodied carbon,
material intensity, and transportation emissions. The corrosion-
resistant properties extend service life and eliminate recurring
maintenance cycles, contributing to lower lifecycle
environmental impact.

Who They Are
Advantic Building Group (ABG) designs and delivers turnkey structural systems
built from Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP), a lightweight and corrosion-resistant alternative to traditional steel. Their composite solutions help data centers accelerate construction timelines, reduce embodied carbon, and build more resilient infrastructure for high-performance environments.
What They Do
ABG replaces secondary steel components with FRP systems such as hot aisle containment, racking structures, platforms, and cable bus covers. These prefabricated solutions reduce structural weight, simplify installation, and allow facilities to adapt quickly to evolving cooling and AI-driven infrastructure demands.
Sustainability Impact
FRP systems can reduce embodied carbon by 25–60% compared to traditional steel while cutting transportation emissions due to their lighter weight. Faster installation, reduced crane use, and corrosion-resistant performance also lower lifecycle energy demand and maintenance requirements, supporting long-term sustainability goals.
