Fibers are an ideal component for use in concrete and mortar as a way to improve the possible weaknesses of these materials. Concrete fibers reduce shrinkage crack formation and crack width, while also improving energy absorption and fire resistance. Other benefits can also be seen, such as the reduction or elimination of reinforcing steel as well as improved durability.

Concrete steel fibers have countless applications in concrete construction. By reducing or replacing traditional mesh and rebar, labor costs will be reduced and construction schedules will be accelerated. Safety is improved by reducing the chance of tripping or puncturing traditional rebar. Since concrete fibers are part of the entire concrete, the rebar will not end up at the bottom of the floor slab.
