XCarb ®
Steel Fibres
ArcelorMittal Fibres has developed a
range of XCarb® recycled and renewably
produced steel fibres for the tunnel
construction industry, for applications in:
> Precast Tunnel Lining Segments Smarter Steels for
> Cast-in-place Solutions People and Planet
> Shotcrete
Our XCarb® recycled and renewably
produced steel fibres allow our customers
to reduce the global CO2 footprint of
their projects and products, contributing
to the decarbonisation of construction
projects and making a positive
contribution towards carbon neutrality.
