SAPY has combined its experience in industrial fibre technologies with its mission to produce fibres for the concrete and cementitious industry, to introduce its brand Corehfil™ Fibre. SAPY’s Corehfil™ Fibres are manufactured from a proprietary formulation of polypropylene polymer and can be divided into microfibers and macrofibers depending on their length and the function that they perform in the concrete.
Synthetic fibre-reinforced concrete is used in a variety of applications, including Commercial, Industrial & Residential Floor Slabs; Bridge Decks; Precast Concrete Products; Plasters & Mortars; Thin Panels; Architectural Finishes; Refractory Casting Moulds; Marine & Hydraulic Structures and Shotcrete where its enhanced performance characteristics offer significant advantages over traditional concrete.
Work with Sapy
Corehfil™ PP Microfibre is specially manufactured synthetic polypropylene fibre designed to reduce crack formation in cementitious construction materials by improving its resistance to early age shrinkage cracking.
Corehfil™ PP Macrofibre is designed as a good alternative to mesh reinforcement, supplementing but not replacing structural reinforcement. Unlike crack control mesh, Corehfil™ PP Macrofibre forms a three dimensional bond with the concrete matrix, significantly improving the control of plastic settlement cracking.
