Fibrillated Fiber Reinforcement

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

GENESIS® XF is an enhanced Fibrillated Concrete Fiber that features our patent pending TUFFINISH™ TECHNOLOGY. This unique technology creates a micro-reinforcement system that increases your overall fiber count, while providing outstanding residual strength. GENESIS® XF Concrete Fibers are specifically engineered for use in
concrete as secondary reinforcement and for the purpose of controlling plastic and temperature shrinkage, as well as settlement cracking.



 

PRODUCT BENEFITS of Genesis® XF:

  • Replacement for traditional concrete reinforcement
  • Inhibits and controls the formation of cracking in concrete
  • Improves impact, shatter and abrasion resistance
  • Reduces plastic shrinkage and settlement cracking
  • Enhanced durability and toughness
  • Reduces water migration and damage from freeze/thaw
  • Improved green strength in Precast Products

Fibrillated Fiber Reinforcement

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

GENESIS® Fibrillated Concrete Fibers are manufactured in compliance with ASTM C-1116 "Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete and Shotcrete." GENESIS® Concrete Fibers are specifically engineered for use in concrete as secondary reinforcement and for the purpose of controlling plastic shrinkage and settlement cracking.
 

PRODUCT BENEFITS:

  • When mixed according to ASTM C94, fibers are always positioned properly
  • Reduces the formation of plastic shrinkage cracking in concrete
  • Approved alternative method to Welded Wire Fabric, when used as a secondary reinforcement in plain concrete slabs on grade
  • Improves impact, shatter and abrasion resistance
  • Enhanced durability and toughness
  • Reduces permeability
