Fiber Reinforced Concrete vs Rebar: What’s the Difference and Which One to Choose?
hetic fibers to control cracking and improve impact resistance, while decorative or residential slabs may use micro-fibers to limit surface hairline cracks and dusting. By distributing reinforcement throughout the concrete, fibers are ideal in applications focused on crack resistance and durability rather than carrying heavy structural loads. What Is Rebar Reinforced Concrete? Rebar-Reinforced Concrete is concrete […]
Polypropylene Fiber for Concrete: What It Is and Why It Matters
Cracks in slabs and screeds hurt every project. They create complaints, extra labour, and hidden cost. Polypropylene fiber for concrete is a small addition to the mix that helps keep those cracks under control. It improves surface quality, supports durability, and protects your margin with very low cost per cubic meter. What Is Polypropylene Fiber […]
5 Benefits Of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete You Should Know
Traditional concrete is strong but heavy. It cracks easily in thin sections. That limits design, slows installation, and eats profit. Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) offers a different route. It mixes alkali-resistant glass fibers into a fine, cement-rich matrix. The result is a thin concrete skin with high strength, low weight, and good crack control. […]
Concrete Fiber: What It Is, How It Works, and Why You Should Use It
A lot of contractors lay concrete that looks great at first, but then it cracks and wears out too soon. Concrete fiber is an easy way to protect your work and keep your customers happy. Basically, concrete fiber is made of small pieces of material that get mixed into concrete. It helps control cracking, makes […]
Can Ecocretefiber™ stealth macro synthetic fiber replace traditional concrete fibers for slabs on ground?
Concrete slabs often crack and show ugly hairs from old fibers. I felt stuck with this until I tried stealth macro synthetic fiber in my own floor projects. Yes, Ecocretefiber™ stealth macro synthetic fiber can replace many traditional fibers in slabs on ground. It keeps fibers hidden below the surface, still controls cracking, and cuts […]
