Structural, twisted polymer fibers

BAUTECH BAUMEX TWIST™

Bautech BAUMEX TWIST™ is a synthetic fiber made from a durable and resilient polymer material. It serves as a primary reinforcement, replacing traditional mesh and steel reinforcement. Produced in Poland using advanced BAUTECH BAUMEX technology.

Supplied in twisted bundles, it ensures excellent spatial distribution of fibers in the concrete and effective anchoring. The use of these fibers significantly strengthens the concrete structure.

Due to high customer demand, this product is listed among our Bautech bestsellers.

How do reinforcing fibers work?

BAUMEX TWIST™ fibers form a powerful reinforcing structure that acts multi-directionally and evenly on the concrete mix, increasing its tensile strength and resistance to cracking and crushing.

Product Features

  • High flexibility of fibers, conducive to fast and efficient work
  • Excellent anchoring of fibers in concrete matrices
  • Double action - ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the structure and protection against the formation of cracks
  • Thanks to the ease of distribution, they eliminate the formation of so-called "hedgehogs" and ensure a uniform, three-dimensional structure
  • Resistance to adverse weather conditions
  • Very high efficiency thanks to the possibility of reducing the thickness of the concrete slab, low dosing, and low costs of installation, transportation, and storage
  • Very high chemical resistance of fibers to oxidation and corrosion caused by chlorides, sulfates, mold, rust, etc., especially in aggressive environments induced by the proximity of seawater, influences of heavy industrial atmosphere
  • They do not cause magnetic interference, making them particularly useful, for example, in constructions related to hospital buildings or warehouses with automatic goods storage

Application

  • For the production of composite concretes
  • For industrial floor reinforcement
  • For the reinforcement of external concrete surfaces such as: storage and container yards, parking lots, loading zones, waste storage and drying facilities, concrete roads, docks, breakwaters
  • Hybrid reinforcement and shrinkage-reducing additive for structural concrete
  • For the reinforcement of non-structural elements such as: topping concrete, prefabricated slabs, substructures, etc.,
  • It replaces traditional reinforcement with steel fibers and meshes
  • Added to the concrete mix, they serve as reinforcement reducing plastic shrinkage and limiting the formation of shrinkage cracks in hardened concrete
  • For the reinforcement of precast concrete elements, decorative concrete products, and small garden architecture, tunnel lining segments, oil tanks, septic tanks, well rings, etc.,
