Introducing Basalt
Basalt Fiber is a new material fiber made from natural stone material. Basalt is non corrosive natural and it will not deteriorate or rust like iron.
Basalt fiber the next-generation industrial material with characteristics similar to carbon fiber, and is expected to be used in automobile-related industries, vehicle / aircraft-related industries, civil engineering and construction-related industries, infrastructure life extension work, etc.
Basalt fiber is environmentally friendly because it will not deteriorate and can be disposed easily with a general incinerator.
Basalt fiber has excellent radiation resistance and is suitable as a material for interim storage facilities such as contaminated soil and decommissioning work in areas affected by nuclear disasters.
Basalt fiber has excellent heat resistance and is suitable for non-combustibility measures in densely built-up areas.
Basalt fiber is non-conductive and is suitable as a seismic material for tunnels
Process of Basalt stone to Basalt MiniBars
MiniBars™ fiber disperses quickly and evenly throughout the concrete matrix, due to its specific gravity being similar to concrete
This inherent characteristic of composite glass fiber ensures the expected fiber performance throughout the concrete mass
