We are pioneers in recovering steel fibers from end-of-life tires (ELT) for their application in fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC). Through our cutting-edge technology and innovative process, we transform waste into second-life materials, promoting sustainability and efficiency in the construction and other industries.
Introducing our first product, Flexofibers steel fibers, as a result of this initiative. Our fibers stand out for their low carbon footprint, remarkable flexibility, and high tenacity, contributing to the production of sustainable, high-quality impact-resistant concrete.

A SECOND LIFE FOR WASTE
The conventional steel fiber production process begins with the extraction of iron ore from mines or the smelting of recycled steel, passing through various stages that collectively emit a significant amount of carbon dioxide into the environment.
Second-life fibers produced by FlexoFibers™ are obtained from end-of-life tires, thus bypassing the traditional stages of the conventional production process, especially smelting. This results in a notable reduction in the carbon footprint.
FLEXOFIBERS’ CARBON FOOTPRINT IS 20 TIMES SMALLER THAN THAT OF CONVENTIONAL STEEL FIBERS!
The filaments comprising Flexofibers™ products are highly flexible, thanks to their reduced diameter and steel alloy properties.
The combination of their small average diameter (0.2 mm) and length provides these fibers with between 3 and 4 times more filaments per unit weight than a conventional metal fiber. This characteristic enhances safety at the construction site, meeting ASTM C 1399 and ASTM C 1581 standards.
With a low carbon footprint, technical advantages, and lower costs, alongside shorter execution times, FlexoFibers™ fibers emerge as the most competitive option in the market.
GREAT SLENDERNESS
Thanks to their reduced diameter (0.2mm avg) and length, these fibers have 3 to 4 times more filaments per unit of weight than a conventional metallic fiber.
HIGH TENACITY
The flexible steel alloy that makes up the FlexoFibers™ fibers has a high tensile strength capacity of 2,500 Mpa. (Prom.)
LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT
As a second-life product, the carbon footprint of FlexoFibers™ is smaller than that of newly produced steel.
SECOND LIFE
The flexible metal fiber for concrete reinforcement FlexoFibers™ comes from the extraction of steel derived from the tire recycling process.
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
In the circular economy, the use of materials is maximized, encompassing concepts such as recycling, reinvention, and reuse at the end of each usage stage. This allows for the maximum value to be obtained from each material or resource. The circular economy represents an alternative to traditional linear economies of “Make, Use, Dispose.”
At FlexoFibers™, we are committed to replacing linear economic models of “end-of-use” with new, more sustainable processes and products that enable the regeneration and reuse of materials in new business models within the sustainable construction sector.
