Kodiak Fiberglass Rebar is a U.S.-based manufacturer and distributor of fiberglass rebar and basalt rebar, serving the wholesale building materials market. Based in Katy, Texas, the company operates with a small workforce and provides FRP reinforcement designed for concrete in corrosive environments, where high tensile strength with lighter weight or reduced magnetic or electrical interference is advantageous. FRP rebar was developed in 1984 in Houston by Leroy Heston, and Kodiak is identified as the first FRP rebar manufacturer in the United States. One early milestone involved the McKinleyville Bridge over Buffalo Creek in West Virginia in 1996, which used the company's FRP rebar in a vehicular bridge built without steel. The description notes Kodiak's ongoing role as both a FRP rebar manufacturer and distributor in the United States.
