Fiber mesh is a revolutionary concrete reinforcement solution that provides superior crack control and structural enhancement for industrial, commercial, and residential concrete applications across Kenya. Made from high-quality polypropylene fibers precisely engineered to optimal length and thickness, this advanced reinforcement material disperses evenly throughout your concrete mix, creating a three-dimensional reinforcement network that controls cracking from every direction. Unlike traditional wire mesh that only reinforces in two dimensions and requires careful positioning within formwork, fiber mesh works from within the concrete matrix itself, preventing the formation of plastic shrinkage cracks during the critical early curing period and reducing thermal cracking as concrete hardens. This makes it the perfect choice for construction projects in Kenya’s varied climate conditions—from Nairobi’s high-altitude temperature fluctuations to Mombasa’s hot coastal environment—where concrete is vulnerable to cracking stresses. Whether you’re constructing industrial factory floors in Thika, commercial parking areas in Westlands, residential driveways in Karen, or airport aprons and roads across the country, fiber mesh delivers reliable crack control and improved concrete performance.
Adding fiber mesh to your concrete mix provides multiple benefits beyond crack prevention, including enhanced impact resistance, improved surface durability, and reduced concrete permeability that protects reinforcement steel from moisture and corrosion. The dosage rate is simple—typically 600-900 grams per cubic meter of concrete depending on application requirements—making it cost-effective compared to traditional wire mesh while eliminating the labor costs associated with cutting, positioning, and tying steel reinforcement. Our fiber mesh is manufactured to international quality standards and has been proven effective in thousands of concrete projects across Kenya, from heavy-duty industrial floors supporting forklifts and machinery to decorative stamped concrete and everyday residential slabs. Simply add the fibers during the mixing process, and they’ll disperse automatically throughout the concrete, requiring no special equipment or training. With immediate availability, competitive bulk pricing for large projects, and delivery to construction sites throughout Nairobi, Kiambu, Machakos, Nakuru, Mombasa, Kisumu, and nationwide, we make it easy to upgrade your concrete performance and reduce long-term maintenance costs.
