A unique three dimensional concrete reinforcement solution
FibreFlor® is a combination of Novocon high performance steel fibres and Fibermesh micro-synthetic fibres providing a unique three dimensional concrete reinforcement solution for composite metal decks and designed to replace traditional welded wire mesh.
By combining the attributes of both types of fibre, FibreFlor® provides performance benefits over the entire life span of the concrete – from simplifying placement, to minimising controlling cracks in the hardened state, to providing years of exceptional durability.
In the development of FibreFlor®, it was identified that many properties were required to provide both an optimum technical solution for the necessary fire rating, but also practically in providing a concrete solution that is easily handled, pumped and finished. The world leading brand of Fibermesh microsynthetic fibres are proven to inhibit both plastic shrinkage and settlement cracking. Additional benefits include increased impact and abrasion resistance together with reduced permeability of the concrete. Fibermesh micro-synthetic fibres are also internationally proven to provide resistance to explosive spalling, in the event of fire. Novocon high performance steel fibres are proven to provide long term crack control. This allows the load carrying capability to replace traditional mesh reinforcement.
