FIBRE NET receives the Industria Felix award for financial and managerial performance.

FIBRE NET has been awarded the Industria Felix High Honors for its financial and managerial performance, an accolade reserved for companies deemed financially secure or safe according to the Cerved Group Score Impact.

"The financial sustainability that we are recognized for allows us to be reliable, alongside clients and customers, even in relation to significant contracts. For example, I think of infrastructure adaptation works or strategic interventions under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (Pnrr), which require partnerships with organized, financially solid, and stable industrial entities, with an open vision to the world and international markets.".

Structural reinforcement and consolidation

FIBRE NET offers structural reinforcement solutions using fiber-reinforced composite material systems (CRM, FRP, FRCM) to improve the strength, safety and durability of existing buildings. These innovative materials are characterised by high mechanical strength, lightweight and flexibility, allowing non-invasive and reversible reinforcement applications. FIBRE NET offers reinforcement solutions of high quality and certified safety.
FIBRE NET systems solve problems related to the natural deterioration or damage caused by seismic events of exposed masonry, stone, brick or mixed materials. It is possible with minimally invasive consolidation and structural reinforcement applications that are compatible and respectful of the historical and architectural specifications of the building.

Elements such as partitions and infill walls are often excluded from structural reinforcement; as they make a fundamental contribution to resistance to seismic action, they should be considered during structural design.

Securing

FIBRE NET’s securing systems enable effective, non-invasive and reversible consolidations, bringing improvements in mechanical strength and ductility characteristics of masonry elements and preventing overturning and bottom-spalling phenomen.
In modern buildings, brick infills, partitions and partition walls are often not properly connected to the main structure. Such elements, although not ‘structural’, can be extremely critical, especially in the event of a seismic event.
FIBRE NET systems enable effective, non-invasive and reversible consolidation, bringing improvements in mechanical strength and ductility characteristics of masonry elements and preventing overturning phenomena.

One of the characteristic phenomena of deterioration in existing buildings is the so-called ‘bottom spalling’, which consists of the detachment of brick elements at the soffit of floors.
In order to secure the structure, FIBRE NET proposes the LIFE + system, which consists of applying preformed fiberglass meshes to the intrados, suitably connected to the joists by means of fastening systems, if necessary plastered.

Logo RI-STRUTTURA: GFRP CRM (Composite Reinforced Mortar)
RI-STRUTTURA: GFRP CRM (Composite Reinforced Mortar)

RI-STRUTTURA System: CRM reinforced plaster in GFRP

Structural reinforcement technique using preformed fiberglass and thermosetting resin meshes, connectors and accessories, combined with mortars, preferably lime-based. Collaborating reinforced plasters improve the shear, flexural and compressive strengths of masonry.

Logo BETONTEX: FRP facing
BETONTEX: FRP facing

BETONTEX System: FRP Fiber Reinforced Facing

FRP system composed of carbon fiber fabrics and tapes and epoxy resins for confinement of columns, shear and flexural reinforcement of beams, confinement of beam-column junctions, flexural and/or shear reinforcement of roof/floor slabs. It allows the mechanical strength and ductility of the structure to be improved in a localized and non-invasive manner.

Logo RETICOLA: reinforced repointing
RETICOLA: reinforced repointing

RETICOLA system: Reinforced Repointing

Technique of "reinforced repointing" of mortar joints on stone and brick masonry using stainless steel strands and connectors, for the consolidation of masonry to be maintained with its original exposed (not plastered) appearance. The system makes it possible to achieve effective and widespread reinforcement and confinement of masonry, while respecting the original aesthetic appearance.

H-PLANET: CRM – Reinforced Plaster in CFRP

H-PLANET System: CRM Reinforced Plaster in CFRP

A reinforcement technique for masonry and concrete elements, it involves the use of pre-formed carbon fiber meshes and accessories combined with high-strength mortar. It guarantees an increase in ductility, in-plane dissipative capacity and resistance to orthogonal actions.

Logo C-MATRIX: FRCM Fiber-reinforced Facing
C-MATRIX: FRCM Fiber-reinforced Facing

C-MATRIX System: FRCM Fiber-reinforced Facing

A reinforcement technique on masonry and concrete elements, it combines the use of AR glass or carbon fiber meshes and inorganic matrices based on cement mortar or lime. Applicable even in high humidity environments, it guarantees high adhesion to the substrate without increasing its mass and stiffness.

SAFE+: Anti-seismic Devices

SAFE+ System: Anti-seismic Devices

Anti-seismic safety systems for precast reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete constructions in the absence of effective connections between the elements of the structure. The systems act as a mechanical and dissipative connection through a dynamic constraint between the elements, improving the structure's response to seismic stress.

LIFE+: Bottom-spalling protection

LIFE+ System: Bottom-spalling protection

Securing of floors through the application of preformed fiberglass and thermosetting resin meshes, fixed through connectors to the joists at the slab intrados. Once realised, the system can be left exposed, plastered or covered with a false ceiling.
