Masterfibre 

Masterfibre is a fibrillated polypropylene fibre designed for crack control and improved durability in concrete or shotcrete applications.

Masterfibre significantly reduces the formation of plastic shrinkage cracks by increasing the tensile capacity of plastic concrete. Reducing the formation of microcracks prevents them developing into larger cracks during subsequent drying and shrinking phases.

Masterfibre can be used as an alternative secondary reinforcement system to welded wire mesh in slab ongrade applications.

Masterfibre is compatible with all BASF Construction Chemicals admixtures. The action of Masterfibre in concrete is purely mechanical and will not affect the hydration process.

Note: Masterfibre does not replace structural reinforcement and hence cannot be used to increase shrinkage control joint spacings, or decrease slab thicknesses.
