Wollastonite
​
Increase the strength of your fiber cement products and fiber reinforced concrete
Product
Wollastonite is a calcium silicate used in many industries such as metallurgy, paints, plastics usually to improve the physical properties of the end product. When used with cement and more specifically in fiber cement products, it brings multiple benefits such as increasing the flexural strengths, reducing micro-cracking, improving shrinkage resistance and fire-resistance. Our partner is one of the world leader in Wollastonite extraction and processing. They work with the largest fiber cement players, but also have long term partnership with EU, USA and Japan international groups
