MAPEFIBRE BG 55

Structural polyolefin fibres for high-ductility concrete and shotcrete


ADVANTAGES:

  • High performance – High energy absorption capacity for concrete with increased toughness and flexural strength; 
  • Cost effective – lower dosage per cubic metre, so lower transport costs and easier handling and storage 
  • Better mixing and homogeneous distribution without balling – All fibres are supplied in easy-to-handle soluble pucks and packaged in pulpable bags.  
  • Safe and easy to handle – compared with the use of steel fibres, Mapefibres are lightweight and safe to touch  
  • Non-corroding for long-term durability
