Research and Development

Pro-Active Research and Development is key to Ribtec's success since its formation in 1971. Ribtec has formed strategic partnerships with companies and institutions across the globe to develop and test new and existing products.

Close working with our customers to understand the supply-to-application process means our products not only perform as expected but also offer benefits in the supply chain.

Ribtec's product development program is dedicated to advancing product performance and process development. Experienced research staff continually evaluate and test our products in both laboratory and real-world conditions feeding their findings back into our development program, maintaining our unrivalled track record and pioneering use of steel fibers. As a direct result we are now able to offer a wider variety of products for new and existing applications of steel fibers.

Ribtec carry out bespoke confidential projects on behalf of customers, developing specialist materials and prototypes. Our excellent test facilities enable a wide range of process parameters to be monitored and measured throughout testing phases.
