The benefits of Murfor® Compact

Architect benefits

Advanced product design for correct use

Murfor® Compact is available in two different sizes to accommodate any wall with and in three different alloys to meet specific exposure classes or to suit different block or brick constructions. To ensure the correct product is used, each type of Murfor® Compact is available in different colors:

Murfor® Compact A: for thin joint masonry and AAC brickwork.
Murfor® Compact E: for exterior masonry.
Murfor® Compact I: for masonry in dry, interior environments.

Builder benefits

Fast and simple installation

Murfor® Compact can be easily rolled out onto blocks or bricks and be cut to size; no overlaps are required and less material is lost. One roll of Murfor® Compact has 30 m of reinforcement, and only weights about 3 kg, about 10 times less than regular masonry reinforcement of the same length. The lightweight rolls are much safer to lift, carry and use

Easy to stack and transport

Murfor® Compact rolls have a low volume, which has several economic and logistical advantages. You can easily stack the rolls so that they take up less space in storage and transport.

Accommodates any wall width

Murfor® Compact is suitable for any wall width. The reinforcement is available in two convenient width options that can be easily combined to reinforce any wall width.
