Chryso®Advanced synthetic fiber technology – engineered for performance, efficiency & sustainability


July 28, 2025 – Chryso, a global leader in sustainable construction solutions and part of Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals, is proud to announce the rebranding of its proven synthetic fibers product lines. Formerly known as STRUX® and SINTA®, the fiber product portfolios will now carry the new names Adfil®Strux Macro Synthetic Fibers and Adfil®Sinta Micro Synthetic Fibers.

This rebranding marks more than just a name change, it underscores Adfil’s supportive role as a leading synthetic fiber manufacturer within the Chryso family, introducing expanded manufacturing and innovation. Now part of Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals, the Adfil brand brings global technical expertise and a broader portfolio of fiber reinforcement solutions to the North American market.

A Unified Brand. A Stronger Future.
The launch of Adfil®Strux and Adfil®Sinta under the Adfil brand umbrella reflects Chryso’s commitment to offering a complete, high-performance fiber reinforcement solution. These fibers deliver the same reliable results that contractors have trusted for years, now backed by enhanced global R&D and production resources.

“Adfil®Strux and Adfil®Sinta represent the evolution of our synthetic fiber product lines and our commitment to supporting contractors and producers with better performance and sustainability,” said Chryso North America Market Development Manager Christopher Roumie. “This rebranding aligns our fiber offering with the world-class capabilities of the global Adfil brand, while maintaining the same product quality our customers expect.”

Adfil®Strux Macro Synthetic Fibers
Adfil®Strux Macro Fibers are a high-performance alternative to welded wire mesh (WWM) and light rebar for concrete reinforcement. They provide enhanced durability, impact resistance, and long-term crack control by uniformly distributing structural fibers throughout the concrete matrix. Applications include slab-on-ground, precast, elevated decks, underground components, and tunnel liners.

Key benefits include:

  • Replacement of welded wire reinforcement to reduce labor costs and improve jobsite safety
  • Corrosion resistance and reduced material handling complexity
  • Compressed construction timelines due to faster mixing and placement
  • Significant CO₂ reduction versus steel reinforcement, supporting sustainability goals

Adfil®Sinta Micro Synthetic Fibers
Adfil®Sinta fibers are engineered to control early-age plastic shrinkage cracking and increase concrete durability. Available in both monofilament (Adfil®Sinta M) and fibrillated (Adfil®Sinta F) formats, these microfibers are ideal for enhancing surface durability and reducing permeability.

Key benefits include:

  • Effective crack control in the first 24 hours after placement
  • Improved dispersion for consistent performance across the mix

Expanded Support & Services
With Adfil now fully supporting the Chryso brand, customers can expect expanded access to technical expertise, enhanced innovation, and a comprehensive range of solutions for concrete reinforcement.
