Rempel's Fibrecon™ product incorporates fibres that disperse evenly throughout the mix and impart durability to concrete. In almost every application, concrete requires reinforcement to ensure flexibility without cracking. For suspended-slab concrete flooring or driveway reinforcement, Fibrecon™'s fibres spread evenly throughout the mix.

Fibrecon™ gives homeowners the following benefits:

• Reduces plastic shrinkage cracking by up to 80%
• Decreases permeability
• Reduces labour costs
• Increases safety

Fibrecon™ gives building contractors the following benefits:

• Plastic shrinkage control (up to 80% crack reduction)
• Eliminates reinforcement installation cost
• Total dispersion throughout mix
• Increases durability and abrasion resistance
• Decreases permeability
• Non corrosive
• Safe and easy to place

Welded wire fabric is often used as an alternative to Fibrecon™, but has drawbacks. If properly installed, wire mesh does provide some crack control, but won't reduce permeability. And, since it must be installed, it costs much more than Fibrecon™.

If your plans include suspended slabs, flooring, or topping insist on using Rempel's Fibrecon™ to ensure durability and low maintenance.
