◆◆Update◆◆◆ The catalog for the Balchip MK has been updated. ◆◆◆

It is a polypropylene fiber for mortar reinforcement that excels in workability and chemical resistance.

For crack suppression in slope construction! NETIS registration number: KT-100021-VE. ■ Lightweight and excellent workability. With a density of 0.91g/cm3, it is light, making transportation and mixing easy. ■ Excellent chemical resistance and rust-proof. It has superior alkali resistance and durability. ■ Adhesion to concrete. Embossed processing and hydrophilic treatment improve adhesion and enhance bending toughness. ■ Environmentally friendly. It does not produce dioxins (chlorine gas) when burned. 【Proposal: Weed prevention using reinforced fiber mixed spraying】 At K.F., we propose "weed prevention work using mortar reinforced fiber mixed spraying." Mortar reinforced fiber mixed spraying involves mixing polypropylene fibers for mortar reinforcement, "Balchip MK," with crack suppression polypropylene short fibers, Toughlight RG, and spraying them to further reduce the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures, thereby enhancing durability and reducing lifecycle costs. By performing reinforced fiber mixed spraying on slopes, such as the toe of the slope, more lasting weed prevention effects can be expected.

By mixing Balchip MK and Toughlite RG for mortar spraying, the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures is further reduced!

The mortar reinforcement fiber mixed spraying proposed by K.F. involves mixing polypropylene fibers for mortar reinforcement, "Balchip MK," with crack suppression polypropylene short fibers, Toughlight RG, and spraying them to further reduce the crack occurrence rate in mortar structures, thereby enhancing durability and reducing lifecycle costs. By performing mixed spraying of reinforcement fibers on slopes and other areas, a more permanent weed prevention effect can be expected. 【Why is the crack occurrence rate reduced?】 Reinforcement fibers have various characteristics depending on their type, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. "Balchip MK" has a long fiber length and a rough texture, allowing the mortar to cling to each fiber, making it difficult to pull out and providing crack prevention effects (cross-linking effect). Additionally, as the bending toughness increases, it is possible to omit the wire mesh and reduce the spraying thickness. However, because each fiber is long and thick, the adhesion area within the mortar becomes smaller.

Construction period and cost reduction possible! This is a lightweight mortar reinforcement fiber that is easy to transport and add compared to steel fibers.

Keif handles products such as polypropylene fibers and vinylon fibers, which are compatible with concrete. "Mortar reinforcement fibers" have good adhesion to cement, making it difficult for cracks to form, and if cracks do occur, they help suppress their growth. The binding force of mortar reinforcement fibers helps prevent the weakening of the structure during freezing, improves freeze-thaw resistance, and enhances long-term durability. 【Benefits of Reinforcement Fibers】 ■ In surface work, the lath application can be omitted, reducing construction time and costs. ■ Lighter than steel fibers, making transportation and addition easier. ■ Being organic fibers, they do not rust and maintain aesthetic appeal. 【Expected Application Scenarios】 ■ Sprayed concrete (surface work, tunnels) ■ Secondary lining ■ Painting work, etc. 【Products Handled】 ■ Kratec ■ Valtip MK, etc. *For more details, please refer to the PDF titled "Essential for Surface Work Contractors!

Crittec Industries Co., Ltd. published a newspaper advertisement (black and white, full-page 15 columns) for the bridge expansion device "Hybrid Joint" in the February 26, 2026 issue of the Sankei Shimbun Tohoku 6 Prefectures edition. In Japan, the number of bridges over 50 years old is rapidly increasing, making the longevity of bridges a critical issue. The expansion devices, which are considered a cause of bridge damage, require high water-tightness and long-term durability. Our expansion device "Hybrid Joint" offers multiple types tailored to different bridge types and conditions. Among them, the "Hybrid Joint 3LII type" has demonstrated a durability of 100 years in fatigue loading tests conducted by a third-party organization. It has successfully passed 12 million cycles of repeated loading at a maximum load of 260 kN, confirming performance equivalent to a 100-year design service life for bridges. We have numerous delivery records in the six Tohoku prefectures and can accommodate a wide range of bridge types, including steel and PC bridges. The special website linked to the advertisement allows for the review of detailed materials and inquiries or requests for documents. Please make use of it for comparing and considering bridge renewal and repair plans. Crittec Industries will continue to contribute to the longevity of bridges nationwide, starting with the Tohoku region.

Born from the voices on the ground, high brightness × wide coverage × high cost performance linear lighting. To respond to the production site’s demands for "brighter," "wider," and "easier to use," we have launched the new high brightness linear lighting LLWK-N series, which balances high brightness and high cost performance. While achieving approximately three times the illuminance compared to the conventional LLWG series, we maintain an easy-to-implement price range. With a natural heat dissipation structure suitable for clean rooms and a compatible design that makes it easy to replace existing lines, we are thoroughly pursuing the "ease of use" required on-site. For detailed product specifications and inquiries about implementation, please feel free to contact us.

Our company not only sells building materials but also carries out flooring and wood deck construction within Okinawa Prefecture. For more details, please contact us. - Raised floor - Steel floor - Direct installation - Conventional floor - Recycled wood / wood deck
