About Steel Fiber Concrete Reinforcement

A smart and proven technology

Concrete has low tensile strength and ductility. Adding reinforcement is necessary to resist stresses and strains in structural members. World leading institutes such as the ACI and ASCE recommend using steel fiber as reinforced concrete to:

  • Prevent cracking
  • Improve impact resistance
  • Prevent damage by spalling
Discover the possibilities with Dramix  >  

In this video, Dramix® inventor Ann Lambrechts explains Nick Glass from CNN, how she managed to increased concrete durability using steel fibers.

Revolutionize concrete design

Compared to traditional reinforcement solutions,
steel fiber reinforcement is:

More durable concrete surface

Time saving construction

Lower installation and labor costs

Risk reduction
(no cutting or welding)

Find out in this video how it works  > 

Next level concrete performance

Steel fiber reinforcement has been around since the 1970-ies and continues to evolve with time. The bents and hooks are crucial to the fiber’s anchoring performance and subsequent concrete ductility. These features, in combination with steel elongation, are the main-differentiators of our Dramix® steel fiber concrete reinforcement series.

Unlike traditional reinforcement, Dramix® steel fiber concrete reinforcement actively reinforce every part of the concrete structure, allowing them to detect small cracks immediately after they occur.
