The right use of fibres has many benefits for the concrete. It increases concretes’ structural performance and durability and it can also be used to control cracking due to shrinkage.
Our Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) expertise is based on :
- A deep understanding of concrete properties and mix design.
- Years of continuous R&D on fibres’ key characteristics and performance.
- Multiple collaborations with customers, industrials, academics and public bodies.
- Working on prestigious jobsites.
Chryso provides a large and innovative range of natural and synthetic fibres. Combined with Chryso®Fibre Expertise , customers enjoy the value created by a global, optimized and easy-to-use FRC solution supported by in-field experts.
Micro-fibres
Micro fibres are mainly used against the formation of plastic shrinkage cracks. This leads to an improved durability and a better aesthetic.
Chryso natural micro fibres can be used to optimize your concrete carbon footprint.
Macro-fibres
Macro-synthetic fibres enhance durability, toughness and the ability to provide structural capacity when properly designed.
These fibres are easier to use compared to steel fibres due to steel fibres due to lighter weight, a non-corrosive nature and the ability to be pumped with ease.
