n the world of building materials, "special" concretes are
becoming more and more common. Incorporating additives such as
colouring agents/pigments, fine powders or surface treatments such as
surface-retarders, polishing, or bush hammering, have thus contributed to
create new generations of concrete.
Fibre concrete, where synthetic, natural or metallic fibres are added to
the fresh concrete, is said to be a "special" concrete. Depending on their
size, dosage and characteristic, fibres may improve certain technical aspect
of concrete.
For these reasons, the use of fibres is in constant evolution and
should become common practice in the future. We offer you solutions
and will assist you to build tomorrow’s structures. CHRYSO offers two types
of fibres:
▲ Micro-fibres: the main effect of these small diameter fibres (from 5
to 50 µm), is to control cracking in recently poured concrete, also called
"plastic shrinkage cracking".
▲ Macro-fibres: with bigger dimensions (diameter from 100 to 1000
µm), these fibres aim at substituting traditional reinforcement in concrete
products and/or concrete structures. They also improve fresh concrete
characteristics, when cracks appear a few days after pouring, sometimes a
few weeks after.
