Fibrecrete FR
Fibrecrete FR comprises polypropylene fibres of 6 mm long, supplied in 1 Kg bags.AdvantagesIt improves the resistance of the concrete to abrasion and to impacts, providing greater durability. It increases the cohesion of the cement mix and its resistance to freeze-thaw cycles. It can be used as an alternative to surface meshing for the control of cracks and fissures. Resistant to acid and alkalis. Self-destructive bag. Main UsesIt improves the resistance of the concrete to abrasion and to impacts, providing greater durability.
