MYMIX® RCM FIBRE is a specially designed micro polypropylene fibre which is used to control cracks in concrete and mortar (cementitious material). it prevents the formation of small cracks that can cause plastic shrinkage and early thermal changes. It improves the durability of the structure by increasing the compressive strength and tensile strength.
Factory sealed packs are best before 36 months from the date of manufacturing in unopened condition and stored under normal and dry condition.
