Case Study: Logistics and Quality Control for 103 Tons of Concrete Fiber Export to Brazil

[wotaichem]

For engineers managing large-scale international projects, consistency in material performance is as critical as the initial design. This case study breaks down a recent shipment of 103,680 KG of Concrete Fibers from China to Santos Port, Brazil, serving major projects for Sika and Saint-Gobain.


Key Technical Takeaways for Civil Engineers:

• Standard Compliance: To meet Brazilian NBR requirements, fibers were tested by 3rd party labs with results presented in cN/dtex.
• Moisture Control: For PP fibers, humidity was strictly maintained between 1.50% and 2.50% to ensure optimal dispersion during the concrete mixing process.
• Thermal Stability: Product peak temperature remained stable at 116°C – 117°C, preventing melting under local Brazilian overheating conditions.
• Batch Consistency: Verified 100% stability across 576 packages (180KG/package), ensuring identical performance from the first ton to the last.

Whether you're dealing with plastic shrinkage cracks or looking to enhance the toughness of precast components, understanding the supply chain and testing rigor is essential.
