Product description fibreC
Material
fibreC - a revolutionary material
Individual look
Extraordinary design variants (colours, surfaces, print, perforation, sand-blasting, relief, shapes) meet the creative require-
ments of modern architecture. fibreC means designers and planners can work with no limits.
Industrial manufacture
The concept of “industrial manufacture“ means that apparent opposites such as batch production of manufacturing with
the industrial specifications of our time, and producing with ever greater economic efficiency, can be combined. This unique
combination guarantees flexibility and spontaneity in the production of fibreC.
Ductility
Bending, shaping and turning of elements in one piece open up new possibilities for design with concrete. Machined parts
are tailor made as a single piece without mitre cuts and still manufactured economically.
Long-term stability
The technical characteristics of fibreC remain unchanged over an expected lifetime of over 50 years. The natural signs of life
and the gradual influence to the appearance caused by the environment do not affect either the mechanical load capacity
or the safety of the panels.

A look at the green facts
fibreC close to nature
100 % recyclable
fibreC is based on mineral base materials and is thus fully recyclable. Profitability and sustainability are promoted by the
economical use of resources.
ISO 14001
We set ourselves high standards in environmental protection. Environmental management at Rieder is certified according
DIN EN ISO 14001:2009.
IBO Certification
The production of fibreC has 90% less greenhouse potential than aluminium sheeting. With its excellent Eco profile, fibreC
consumes 85% less primary energy than high pressure laminate panels (Source: IBO product test 10/2014).
Carbon Footprint
The primary energy requirement for the production process of fibreC glassfibre reinforced concrete is only 7.08 MJ/kg (PEI).
The manufacture causes 0.62 kgCO2eq/kg greenhouse potential and 0.001 kgSO2eq/kg acidification potential (AP).
Future
The nature and the eco-friendliness of fibreC are of particular concern to us. We work round the clock to become even better
and more eco-friendly despite the excellent life cycle assessment.

A significant feature of the corner design with fibreC panels cut on

The square corner profile offers a host of design possibilities and
the advantage of easy panel fastening. The corner profile comes in

liability for the substructure is excluded. The instructions given by the manufacturer of the substructure must be included in the detailed planning of the substructure. The possible types of
fastening vary depending on the particular construction project and the particular manufacturer is responsible for the fastening systems. All visualisations in the brochure are schematic

Invisible fastening with undercut anchor
Panels with a thickness of 13 mm can be fitted invisible on the back with metal clips and special dowels. For this purpose, each panel has
on the top row of clips adjusting screws and a fixed point fastening (screw or clip), with the result that it can be aligned and no displacement
occurs. The maximum construction height is 100 m. Additional heights must be checked with a special approval by the customer.

Cutting
Cutting stationary – wet cut
fibreC panels can be tailor-cut using a water jet. This is particularly
suitable for complex cuts like curves and diagonal cuts. After the
wet cut process, cleaning with clean water and subsequent drying
are important. The panels must not be processed or piled under any
circumstances when wet. Handling the panels improperly in the wet
condition may lead to a loss of quality.
Use a commercial jig saw with diamond jigsaw blade for cut-outs.
