Fibermesh 150 and Fibermesh 300 manufactured by Propex recently received an evaluation report (ESR No1165) from ICC Evaluation Service (ICC-ES), providing evidence that these microsynthetic concrete fiber reinforcements meet code requirements.

Building officials, architects, contractors, specifiers, designers and others utilize ICC-ES Evaluation Reports to provide a basis for using or approving Fibermesh in construction projects under the International Fibrous Reinforcing Code.

ICC-ES President Shahin Moinian explains why ICC-ES Evaluation Reports are so important. “Propex can now reference the evaluation report to ensure building officials and the building industry that the product meets I-Code requirements,” Moinian said. “Building departments have a long history of using evaluation reports, and ICC-ES operates as a technical resource with the highest quality of product review for the building department. Final approval of building products is always in the hands of the local regulatory agency.”

ICC-ES thoroughly examined Propex’s product information, test reports, calculations, quality control methods and other factors to ensure the product is code-compliant.

A nonprofit, limited liability company, ICC-ES is the United States’ leading evaluation service for innovative building materials, components and systems. ICC-ES Evaluation Reports (ESRs) and PMG Listings provide evidence that products and systems meet requirements of codes and technical standards.
