Embossed Macro Synthetic Fiber for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete

Enhanced Bonding and Crack Control with Synthetic Macro fibers

What Is HTM® Emb Embossed Macro Synthetic Fiber?

HTM® Emb is a premium embossed monofilament macro synthetic fiber made from 100% virgin polypropylene.
Its embossed surface increases mechanical anchorage, forming a strong 3D reinforcement network in concrete and shotcrete.

Compared to steel fibers and welded wire mesh, HTM® Emb provides:

  • Better bonding

  • Non-corrosive durability

  • Easier and faster placement

  • Consistent fiber distribution

  • Long-term crack control performance

Applicable Standards for Macro Fiber-Reinforced Concrete

HTM® Emb complies with essential American and international concrete fiber standards:

  • ASTM C1116: Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Specification

  • ASTM D7508: Macro Synthetic Fibers for Use in Concrete

How Embossed Macro Fibers Improve Concrete Performance

HTM® Emb’s embossed profile significantly increases mechanical anchorage with the cement matrix, improving:

  • Bonding strength

  • Post-crack load-carrying capacity

  • Concrete toughness

  • Impact and fatigue resistance

  • Drying shrinkage and plastic shrinkage crack control

HTM® Emb embossed macro synthetic fiber improves crack control and enhances toughness in industrial flooring during concrete placement and curing

Crack control and enhanced toughness

HTM® Emb embossed macro synthetic fiber minimizes shrinkage cracks in concrete slabs-on-grade, improving surface durability and reducing maintenance costs

No Balling. No Rust. Easier Finishing.
Why macro synthetic fiber is a better alternative to steel fiber in concrete slabs.

Key Benefits of HTM® Emb for Concrete Reinforcement

  • Stronger bonding from embossed profile

  • Replaces steel fibers & welded wire mesh

  • Enhanced crack control (plastic + drying shrinkage)

  • Improved toughness, impact & fatigue resistance

  • Corrosion-free and long-term durability

  • Faster placement, no special equipment needed

  • Consistent finishing and fewer surface defects

  • Lower installation cost vs. mesh or steel fibers

Usage Guidelines for Macro Synthetic Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Maximize the performance of macro synthetic fibers in your fiber-reinforced concrete projects.

  1. Dosage: 1.8–4.5 kg/m³, typically 3 kg/m³ for crack control in macro concrete

  2. Mixing: Add during batching with aggregates and cement; extend mixing for even distribution

  3. Placement: Use standard placement methods; fibers remain embedded for smooth finishes

  4. Note: Replaces secondary mesh but not structural rebar if required by local codes

FAQ

  • The embossed profile of HTM® Emb increases the mechanical interlock between the fiber and the cement matrix. This enhanced anchorage allows the fiber to transfer stress more efficiently, improving crack control, flexural strength, and impact resistance compared to smooth macro synthetic fibers.

  • Yes. HTM® Emb can replace steel fibers and welded wire mesh in many concrete reinforcement applications. It provides similar or improved crack control and toughness without corrosion risks, reduces labor costs, and offers more consistent distribution within the mix.

  • Yes. HTM® Emb is designed for easy integration into ready-mix, precast, or on-site batching. It disperses uniformly without special equipment, and common placement methods such as pumping, screeding, and finishing remain unchanged.
