Macro Synthetic Fibers

Like the placement of steel reinforcement, macro synthetic fibers can be placed in concrete to transfer post-crack stress, reduce crack widths, increase impact/abrasion resistance and generally improve the long-term performance of the slabs and walls. Macro synthetic fibers eliminates the need for welded-wire mesh (WWM) and small diameter reinforcing bars used as secondary reinforcement, depending on the application.

• Keep the broom head at a 45-degree angle.
• Broom with a single pass in one direction as it creates a more uniform appearance and will result in less fibers being pulled from the surface.
• Periodically clean broom bristles over time to reduce fiber build up which can cause surface irregularities
