Heidelberg Materials UK

Fibre-reinforced concrete that enhances tensile strength, reduces cracking, and improves durability.

Website

Application

Used in concrete slabs, external paving, deep sections greater than 500 mm, strip footings, foundations, suspended floors, roof elements, large-scale industrial floors, lightweight structures, architecturally sensitive buildings, complex geometric elements, sprayed concrete applications, heavy-duty industrial paving, industrial ground-bearing slabs, jointless ground-bearing slabs, suspended slabs on piles, and impermeable concrete slabs.

Description

Fibre-reinforced concrete that enhances tensile strength, reduces cracking, and improves durability.

Available in three variants:

  • FibreCrete Micro: consists of non-structural synthetic fibres that comply fully with European and British standards. They are suitable for almost all conventional concrete mixes and applications.
  • FibreCrete Macro: consists of structural fibres manufactured from high-strength, high-modulus synthetic plastic. This product is designed to replace welded mesh and light reinforcement bars in concrete applications.
  • FibreCrete Steel: consists of structural steel fibres available in a range of grades, shapes and sizes to suit most concrete flooring applications. FibreCrete Steel improves tensile strength and delivers reliable performance in demanding environments.

Features and benefits:

  • Minimizes plastic shrinkage cracking.
  • Reduces settlement and bleeding in deeper sections.
  • Enhances surface durability and finish quality.
  • Improves cohesion of fresh concrete for easier placement.
  • Provides greater flexural and shear strength.
  • Increases load capacity and ductility.
  • Offers superior abrasion resistance.
  • Improves fire resistance.
  • Supports potential CO₂ reduction through optimised reinforcement.
