Basalt mesh from Global Optimals is a high‑performance reinforcement material made from premium basalt fiber, delivering exceptional strength and durability for construction systems. Basalt fiber is produced by melting natural basalt rock at temperatures above 1,400 °C and drawing it into fine filaments; this process yields fibers with high tensile strength, low density, and excellent chemical inertness, making them a preferred alternative to glass fiber in aggressive environments. The mesh is available with cell sizes ranging from 5×5 mm to 25×25 mm, allowing precise selection for each application. Tensile strength reaches ≥ 1500 N/m, and the product exhibits high alkali resistance, ensuring stable performance in aggressive cementitious mixes and alkaline solutions. The fiber network distributes stresses uniformly, reducing the risk of crack formation in concrete and plaster layers. Its weight varies between 60 g/m² and 500 g/m², facilitating easy handling and reducing transportation costs. Key applications include plastering systems, masonry reinforcement, façade SFTK systems, and road surfacing. In mortar or concrete mixes, basalt mesh is often combined with plasticizers or super‑plasticizers to improve workability without compromising strength. The mesh’s high thermal stability (up to 650 °C) enables use in fire‑resistant constructions, industrial basement floors, and other high‑temperature zones. Corrosion resistance to moisture, salts, and acidic environments makes it suitable for waterproofing layers, protective coatings, and structures exposed to aggressive chemicals. For maximum service life, store the mesh in a dry environment at +5…+30 °C, away from direct sunlight and mechanical damage. During installation, use specialized adhesive compounds based on acrylic or epoxy resins to achieve reliable bonding with concrete substrates. When needed, pre‑impregnating the mesh with adhesion‑promoting additives can enhance bond strength to gypsum or cementitious mortars, simplifying application and reducing the risk of delamination. During transport, roll the mesh in sealed polyethylene bags to protect against moisture and mechanical impacts.

The basalt mesh should be stored in a dry, well‑ventilated area, protected from direct sunlight and sudden temperature fluctuations. Recommended storage temperature is between +15 °C and +25 °C, ensuring no condensation occurs. When these conditions are met, the product typically retains its performance for 12–24 months. During handling, wear protective gloves and safety glasses, and avoid sharp objects that could compromise the packaging. Maintain the integrity of the packaging—no tears or holes—to prevent moisture ingress and contamination.
