MACROFIBER

Polypropylene Macro Fiber

CETEX Macrofiber is structural macrofiber made of 100% virgin polypropylene, which has been thermally, chemically and mechanically processed to uniformly distribute in the cementetious mortar and provide a highly effective three-dimensional concrete reinforcement system. It conforms to ASTM C 1116/C 1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete”

BENEFITS

Cheaper, more environmentally friendly and lighter than steel reinforcements.
Uniform distribution throughout the concrete matrix
Enhanced aesthetics and eliminates the potential for rust stains
Excellent finishability Enhances durability
Reduces Initial Crack formation
Eliminates the need for welded-wire reinforcement (WWR) and conventional steel bars as secondary reinforcement, depending on the application
Minimises thne crack formation
Provides plastic shrinkage crack reduction and settlement control
Customised macrofiber with Aspect Ratio ranging from 40 to 250
Use as secondary reinforcement to control shrinkage and temperature cracking and to provide performance equivalent to that of other commercially available synthetic macrofibers, at a reduced dosage.
Imcrease initial strength of concrete hence faster demoulding of form work
Reduces construction time and overall labor and material costs
Increases flexural toughness, impact and shatter resistance
Reduces carbon footprint compared to convetional steel reinforcement
