Concrete reinforcing fiber gives most effective solutions against crack deformations. Fibers ensure crack control by increasing load bearing capacity of concrete. Fibers could be used in all cement materials, interior exterior plaster applications, for repairing mortars and for construction chemicals manufacturing.
- Sustainable maximum reinforcement for concrete
- Reducing plastic and hardened concrete shrinkage
- Improving impact strength
- Increasing fatigue resistance and concrete toughness
- Protection against freeze-thaw cycles
- Provide maximum long-term durability
- Joint Extension
- Increasing performance in energy absorption and fire resistance
- Reduced absorption of water, chemicals, etc.
- Reduced project costs
