ANTICRACK
Best bonding properties.
Smallest crack widths.
Liquid-tight.
Smallest crack widths.
Liquid-tight.
solidian ANTICRACK is carbon reinforcement with an even better bonding behavior for optimum crack distribution, small cracks, and short anchorage lengths.
solidian ANTICRACK combines many advantages compared to conventional construction with reinforced concrete. The biggest advantage of our crack limiting reinforcement for concrete is the non-corrosive material with superior bonding behavior – this results in many advantages for the future of building with concrete.
CE-certified per EAD 260057-00-0303 Inorganic fibre grids for reinforcement of cement-, anhydrite- or resin-based screeds. For product performance in this application, please check the Declaration of Performance (DoP) available on Downloads page, under certificates section.
Product Features
Advantages
- Sanded surface for superior bonding behavior
- Higher tensile strength compared to structural steel
- Much lighter and thinner than steel
- Sustainable material as consumption of water, sand, and cement are significantly lower
- Thinner and safer components and thus less raw material usage and economical transport
- No corrosion
- Less crack widths and therefore much lower repair costs

Product Applications
Flat and light reinforcement like the solidian ANTICRACK can be used wherever there are requirements for a non-corrosive environment, especially with requirements to limitation of crack widths, optimal distribution of cracks, and short anchorage lengths e.g.
- Restoration, parking decks, industrial floors
- Hydraulic structures
- Tiling and waterproofing: pools, basements
- Protection layers, where concrete layers are applied on a steel-reinforced concrete underground to protect the underground
- Strengthening measures for restoration (e.g. failure of the bottom plate due to excessive load)
- Marine construction, earthquake, bridge constructions, structures that need small crack widths
