Synthetic Fibrillated Mesh Fiber - FF
FF is a Synthetic Fibrillated Mesh Fiber for concrete reinforcement that complies with Standard Specifications for Fiber Reinforced Concrete and Shotcrete, and is specifically designed to help mitigate the formation of shrinkage cracking in concrete. Typically used at a dosage of 0.9 kg/m3, FIBERCRETE FF have been shown to greatly reduce shrinkage cracking by as much as 83% when compared to plain concrete.
