Note : PP fibers are optimal for 90% of industrial floors , while steel fibers are reserved for ultra-high-impact zones
(e.g., airport runways).
◇Slabs-on-Grade : 3–6 kg/m³ for crack control.
◇Precast Concrete : 4–8 kg/m³ to reduce handling cracks.
◇Marine Structures : 5–10 kg/m³ for corrosion-free durability.
◇Shotcrete : 6–10 kg/m³ to minimize rebound and cracking.
◇Cost-Effective : 70% savings vs. steel fibers.
◇Durability : No rust, even in wet environments.
◇Ease of Use : Uniform dispersion without balling.
Ideal for : Warehouses, parking garages, tunnels, and decorative concrete.
Shotcrete, and engineering industries, concrete project,like:
◇Slab on Grade and elevated construction (distribution centers, warehouses, etc.)
◇Thin walled precast (septic tanks, vaults, walls, etc.)
◇Shotcrete for tunnel linings, pool construction and slope stabilization
◇Pavements and white-toppings
The fibers are wrapped with water-soluble film and uniquely packaged in water soluble paper boxes.Just throw the whole boxes of fibers into the concrete mixture, the boxes and film will dissolve within seconds, leaving the fibers to disperse evenly throughout the mixture.
