Over the past 20 years thousands of companies have made the switch to the synthetic fiber reinforcement system, which delivers multiple benefits to your concrete asset;
- Eliminates corrosion of crack control mesh
- Eliminates the risk of concrete cancer
- Reduces crack propagation
- Increases production speeds as much as 50%
- Increases flexural toughness
- Increases impact resistance
- Increases fatigue strength
- Reduces labour costs
- Reduces material handling and transport costs
- Reduces equipment maintenance
- Provides up to 70% reduction in carbon footprint

Double Your Production Speeds
Traditionally concrete flooring requires the installation of large amounts of steel reinforcement. Barchip’s synthetic fiber concrete reinforcement eliminates this process.
When the 155,000 m2 HABOM aircraft facility in Turkey upgraded to Barchip’s synthetic fiber concrete reinforcement they saw a drastic increase in production. 12 man crews moved from pouring 800 m2/day to between 1200 m2 and 1600 m2/day.
What could you achieve on your project?
Eliminate Transport and Storage Costs
Barchip’s synthetic fiber concrete reinforcement is added at the batch plant and delivered to site ready mixed and ready reinforced, eliminating steel transport and storage costs.
One pallet of Barchip’s concrete reinforcement is enough to reinforce up to 20 full concrete trucks.
