State-promoted Gujarat State Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd (GSFC) on Tuesday said it will soon export its first consignment of nylon fibre industrial products, launched recently, to Myanmar.
The industrial products, called GUJCON-CRF & PRF, have applications in infrastructure industry for secondary fibre reinforcement of concrete and plaster, said Dr S K Nanda, Chairman and Managing Director, here,
These products are made up of 100% virgin nylon 6 fibre which helps in enhancing the abrasion resistance and durability of concrete structure, reduces shrinkage cracks and rebound loss, water permeability etc. It also enhances the aesthetic value of structure by giving a better surface finish.
The concept of secondary fibre reinforcement in construction industry is in an infancy stage in most of the Asian and African countries. So, there is a huge untapped market potential for such products in these countries, he added.
