FASERFIX CONCRETE NATURALLY SUSTAINABLE EXTREMELY TOUGH. NEW: Now reinforced with basalt fibres

Drainage channels have long been made of conventional concrete. HAURATON has been using fibre-reinforced concrete for channel production since the early 1970s. Read in this brochure why this material is the perfect building material for drainage systems. FASERFIX KS Sturdy and efficient drainage channels for commercial and public areas. FASERFIX SUPER Drainage channels for extreme loads and high dynamic forces. FASERFIX BIG Channels for heavy duty traffic with ductile iron channel edge protection for maximum stability.

Cement as an essential component of concrete is produced in compliance with the strict legal Federal Emmissions Control Ordinance BImSchV. HAURATON procures its cement exclusively from plants that also operate in voluntary environmental and energy commitment systems in accordance with ISO 14001 and 50001 and thus ensure the sustainable and energy-efficient production of the material. All aggregates used are also resource-friendly and ecological. In the production of concrete, by-products from other industries are used. Slag sand and fly ash come from the iron and steel industry and coal-fired...

CONCRETE IS FULLY RECYCLABLE. Concrete demolition waste is processed by crushing and sifting it. Concrete chippings and crushed concrete sand are produced. The aggregates can be used, among other things, bound as aggregate for concrete, as a secondary raw material in cement and unbound in road construction or as a binder in oil spills. CONCRETE IS NATURAL. What is needed to produce concrete is supplied by nature. The main ingredients are sand, gravel, water and cement. Cement consists mainly of limestone or chalk and clay and, together with water, forms the cement paste that binds the aggregate...

Concrete demolition is crushed and sifted. he aggregates are reused in the construction T industry. n 2018, 93.9 % of the construction waste generated I (of which 77.9 % was recycled) and more than 97.5 % of road demolition waste (of which 93.2 % was recycled)...

FASERFIX is a recyclable raw material according to the European Waste Hierarchy. The Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste establishes the legal framework for the management of waste in the European Community. It contains important concepts such as waste, recovery and disposal, and contains important principles such as an obligation to manage waste in a way that does not harm the environment or human health. The top priority is to avoid waste. If this is not possible, materials should be recycled. This is possible with FASERFIX concrete....

CONCRETE IS STRONG CONCRETE KEEPS ITS SHAPE. Once concrete has been cast into a shape, it will retain this shape permanently. It will not shrink, remains reliably stable and can withstand heavy loads. CONCRETE IS A DURABLE MATERIAL. Concrete is particularly durable and robust; concrete buildings hundreds of years old are still in use today. Durable lime mortar was used for building as long as 14,000 years ago. Burnt lime was already used in the construction of the pyramids in Egypt. Later, the Romans developed the opus caementitium, from which the word cement is derived. Among other things, it...

Material FASERFIX Concrete | Strong

FASERFIX CONCRETE PARTICULARLY STRONG DUE TO FIBRE REINFORCEMENT. As early as the Middle Ages, clay was mixed with plant fibres and used for building houses. The great stability of fibre-reinforced concrete is based on this principle. As with trees, plants or bones, the fibres form an interwoven network that gives the concrete the highest degree of stability. Clay wall reinforced with plant fibres. Wood fibre boards get their high stability from a densely woven fibre network. The special properties of FASERFIX concrete: Natural fibres from basalt Increased cohesion and stability Increased impact...

FASERFIX concrete – an ideal material for drainage channels in the heavy-duty sector. Through the use of fibres, concrete achieves a significantly higher bending tensile strength than concrete without fibres. So strong is FASERFIX concrete: FASERFIX concrete achieves compressive strength class C 50/60 and far exceeds the requirements of EN 1433 (C 35/45). without fibres Deflection in mm Source: Institute for Materials in Construction, University of the Federal Armed Forces Munich, brochure Special Concretes Fibre Concrete, spring trimester 2010.
