Commitments
Today, the construction world works hard to get greener. We want to take part of the environmental change by offering a low carbon reinforcement for new and traditional concrete.
PERFORMANCE
Lighten structures and costs
- Less cracks
- Corrosion-free
- Homogeneous distribution of reinforcements
- Less or No steel
- Time saving on constructions
SECURITY
Protect workers and users
- Less handling of rebars and grids
- Easy construction process
- Adapted to on and off-site construction
- Enhanced lifetime of structures
SUSTAINABILITY
Lower the environmental footprint
- Reduction of CO2 emissions up to 50% depending on use
- Durability of concrete
- Economy of materials
About Us
It all starts when Michelin developed the lunar tire for NASA based on the Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) technology. It was then extended to the newly unveiled Uptis (Unique Puncture-proof Tire System) airless tire.
This composite material is also developed by our team: AraNea Composite, born in 2019 to extend the use of GFRP to non-pneumatic applications. Today, we focus on concrete reinforcement to take part to the ecological transition of the construction world. Our expertise is reinforced by Michelin's high-tech materials research and development.
Thus, AraNea Composite offers solutions that combine performance, quality, safety and environmental positive impact.
Fibers
APPLICATIONS
Whether you are an architect, a concrete supplier, a cement manufacturer, an On-site or Off-site builder, we have a solution for you.
We offer reinforcement solutions for concrete from mortar to Ultra High Performance Fiber Concrete (UHPFC).
Design
4 times lighter than steel and corrosion free, AraNea's fibers enable to build thinner, aesthetic and structural constructions with any kind of concrete.
Performance
AraNea fibers are resistant to all types of aggression (chemical, UV, bacteria, mold and chlorides). There is no need to increase concrete thickness to protect reinforcement.
Fibers present a high tensile strength and can be applied to versatile applications like 3D printing concrete or other non-standard uses.
Environment Friendliness
Due to their performance, AraNea's fibers are a sustainable and ecological alternative to metal reinforcements since they reduce CO2 emissions up to 50%.
We dream about delaying the earth overshoot day by democratizing the use of our fibers. #Movethedate
