fibreglass
Woven glass material
Fibreglass is a material made of fine glass fibres woven or matted together, typically reinforced with resin to create a strong, lightweight composite.
It's used in boat hulls, car bodies, insulation, and countless other applications where strength without weight matters: The canoe was made of fibreglass.
Also spelled fiberglass (American).
