Reinforcement Twice as Strong as Steel!

TROKOTEX glass fiber composite mesh is a new and innovative solution on the Polish construction market. Thanks to its exceptional properties and tensile strength, it has a wide range of applications and is an excellent alternative to traditional steel mesh. Its primary area of use is construction, especially for reinforcing concrete elements such as screeds, floors, walls, and slabs. Choosing non-metallic reinforcement helps increase structural durability, prevent shrinkage cracking, and protect underfloor heating systems.

Key Benefits:
Using mesh with smaller-diameter rods significantly reduces the weight and cost of structures, while maintaining superior strength, offering twice the tensile strength of standard or stainless steel. Additionally, composite reinforcement allows for a reduction in concrete thickness by approximately 15%.

Main Properties of TROKOTEX Composite Mesh:

  • High tensile strength with minimal weight

  • Thermal expansion coefficient similar to concrete – reduces cracking

  • Radio wave transparency (magnetically passive dielectric)

  • Very low thermal conductivity – approx. 100× lower than steel

  • Total resistance to corrosion and alkalis – slows concrete degradation

  • Long lifespan, eco-friendly, and resistant to harsh environments

  • Consistent physical performance in low temperatures and variable weather

Thanks to these characteristics, TROKOTEX composite mesh is a technically and economically sound replacement for traditional steel reinforcement. With chemical resistance comparable to A4 stainless steel and nearly three times the tensile strength, it is an ideal choice for modern construction projects.

TROKOTEX composite meshes are made of rods with diameters of 2.5, 3, 4, 6, or 8 mm, formed into grids with apertures ranging from 50 mm to 150 mm. They are available in rolls or flat sheets.
