PRODUCTS:
MINERAL
FIBERS
- FIBERAND
Mineral Fibers are currently made from a base of slag. Different compounds
and sizings are added, depending upon the customer's intended use.
- FIBERAND
Mineral Fibers made from modified slag were created for
applications where fine surface finish is not a concern. Because these
fibers utilize a recycled material (i.e., slag), they are less expensive
to produce than basalt fibers. Uses for this fiber include backing for
PVC flooring, ceiling tiles, insulation, bituminous compounds, etc.
- In high-tech
applications, where high temperature resistance and/or a fine surface
finish is desired, such as friction materials, compression molded products,
paints, gaskets and plastic reinforcement, Fiberand can further modify
the slag fibers with additional compounds to meet customer needs. Shot
content can also be reduced. We do, however, have a source of basalt
fibers if so desired.
- In the
road industry, where Fiberand Mineral Fibers made from slag were engineered
to meet Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidelines, the fibers are
marketed as FIBERAND Mineral Road Fibers.
CELLULOSE
FIBERS
FIBERAND
has secured a line of cellulose fibers that meet the various State DOT
Specifications.These fibers will be marketed as
FIBERAND
C #200 Road Fibers. If you prefer cellulose, you can now

REBAR
COATINGS
- FIBERAND
is introducing two new coatings for rebar. Once the rebar is coated with
Fiberand/Ginsite XEW or Fiberand/WNR coatings,
it can be bent, twisted or dropped without causing "holidays"
or fissures. These new proprietary coatings will eliminate the penetration
of saline moistures which normally attack rebar reinforced concrete in
bridges, seawalls and any other structures exposed to excessive moisture.
