Concrete surfaces in contact with water

Sewage treatment plants, sewers, parts of power stations – they all have one thing in common: the risk of corrosion from water ingress for conventional steel reinforcement.
Fibrofor High Grade reduces the depth of water penetration into the concrete body by more than 25%, reduces shrinkage cracks and increases abrasion resistance. Fibrofor High Grade therefore greatly increases the quality and service life of concrete parts that are exposed to water.
Sewage treatment plants and sewers are even more problematic, as they are often exposed to particularly aggressive water. Our synthetic fibers are proven to be resistant to such liquids.
Based on a structural analysis, the conventional steel reinforcement can be replaced to a large extent or even completely by Fibrofor High Grade or Concrix. The combination of both fibers has proven to be particularly advantageous in ducts.
In addition, if construction conditions are cramped, such as in underground buildings, there is no need for the laborious insertion and laying of the structural steel; this means you can significantly reduce construction time and costs with our fibers.
If required, our engineers will prepare a free structural analysis based on the latest standards.
Increased water penetration depth and service life of concrete surfaces.
Our synthetic fibers reduce maintenance costs
Our products reduce the depth of water penetration into the concrete body. The fibers increase the quality and service life of components that are exposed to water.
They also have a markedly positive effect on the shrinkage behavior of the components and extend the service life of the structures.
Our products increase the resistance of the concrete surface to abrasion caused by vehicles, seawater or other uses. This extends the service life of structures in contact with water.
