CreteFiber SF 540

CreteFiber SF 540 is a macro synthetic fiber used as concrete reinforcement fiber. It transforms concrete into reinforced composite material by increasing the flexural toughness and energy absorption performance of concrete.

PRIMARY APPLICATIONS

• Foundation concrete and industrial floor concrete (distribution centers, warehouses, etc.)
• Thin-walled precast (septic tanks, cellars, walls, etc.)
• Tunnel linings, pool construction and shotcrete

FEATURES

• It has excellent energy absorption performance.
• It provides very high bending toughness.
• It reduces the possibility of spalling from the concrete edges.
• It saves labor since there is no need for steel mesh.
• Improves the mix by reducing potential concrete segregation.
• It reduces the sweating of the concrete and the formation of settlement cracks caused by it.
• It reduces the risk of corrosion of the steel mesh used for crack control.
• It is cost-effective compared to steel mesh.
• It is more environmentally friendly, safe and lighter than steel.
