I need to make a piece "synchrokörper" made from GFK plastic

Could any one tell me what kind of plastic it is?

GFK is not an industry recognized abbreviation. I could find no mention of it in either ISO 1403 or SAE J1344, or in several other references that I consulted.
 
Is it possible that GFK is an acronym? The German words for glass and plastic are Glas and Kunststoff, respectively, so perhaps the material name is just a generic one for glass-filled plastic.
