Every bulk dispatch and bagged shipment is accompanied by batch-specific test reports from NABL accredited testing facilities.
Alkali Resistance & High Tensile Reinforcement
AR Glass Fibers are engineered with a high Zirconia (ZrO₂ ≥ 16.7%) content, protecting the filaments from the aggressive alkaline environment (pH > 12.5) of hydrating Portland cement. Provides superior flexural tensile strength and crack prevention.
Key Applications
Architectural GRC panels, decorative facades, and moldings
Spray premix and shotcrete tunneling reinforcement
Thin-walled precast elements eliminating steel mesh corrosion
Key Technical Features & Engineering Benefits
High modulus of elasticity (72 GPa), Excellent chemical resistance, Disperses easily during mixing without balling
Bagged Cargo: Shrink-wrapped, palletized and covered with waterproof tarpaulins during transit.
Bulk Cargo: Transported via dedicated pressure pneumatic bulkers (25 - 35 MT capacity) for zero spillage and direct silo discharge.
Traceability: Each bag and consignment marked with Batch Number, Date of Manufacture, and Net Weight.
Storage & Shelf Life Recommendations
Store in dry, covered warehouse sheds elevated on wooden pallets off the concrete ground.
Prevent direct contact with moisture, high humidity, and open rainwater to avoid pre-hydration or compaction.
Shelf Life: Typically 12 to 24 months from manufacturing date when stored in original un-opened moisture-proof packaging.
Safety & PPE: Use protective dust masks, safety goggles, and work gloves during batching and mechanical handling.
