Products

In India, ADFORS manufactures Polyester mesh for use in coal mining operations. The product is coated with a specialized fire retardant coating for safety in enclosed locations like coal mines. The use of the polyester mesh occurs at the end stage of coal recovery in an operation called salvage. The fabric is installed on the roof of the coal mines so that the various mining equipment can be extracted safely. Since the environment is extremely flammable, the ADFORS Mining Mesh is coated with a specialized fire retardant to deter progression of fire.

In addition to the above, ADFORS India supplies the following products:

  • Insect Screens

    The mainstay product is the woven fiberglass insect screens manufactured at our state of the art plant in Mexico. These are available in 4 different colors and different roll width starting from 3ft to 8ft. In addition to the standard fiberglass mesh, specialty screens such as Stiff Screen, Vision Perfect, Pet Resistant, Sun Guard, Extra Strength and Small Insect screens are also available.

    Standard Fiberglass screens are flexible, economical, and easy to install. They don’t crease, dent or unravel and are the most commonly used for screening applications. Various specialty screens made of fiberglass provide benefits such as clarity, visibility, tear and damage resistance from pets, extra strength, high durability, protection from tiny insects, gnats & finer particles, blocking of sun’s rays and doorway alert mechanism to prevent accidental walk through and damage. Aluminum screens are strong and durable that resists rust and does not sag. A protective finish on the mesh prevents corrosion and strengthens the weave.

  • GlasGrid Pavement Reinforcement Grids

    Geotex business under ADFORS deals in pavement reinforcement products which have been used in highway/runway construction or maintenance works over the last 40 years in more than 64 countries. GlasGrid is a prominent product in the Geotex range which is being successfully used in India since the last 15 years in projects like PPP Airports, Civil Airports, Defence Airfields, National Highways/Elevated projects, and other important stretches under state bodies like PWD, state road departments etc. Our road reinforcement products are used as ‘Bitumen Reinforcement Interlayer’ which prevents reflective cracking and enhances fatigue performance, thus increasing the service life of the pavement. GlasGrid Pavement Reinforcement Grids retard reflective cracking by a factor of 2 to 3 times by turning crack stresses horizontally to dissipate the stress. Glasgrid systems extend pavement life by upto 300% and works by reinforcing bituminous concrete overlays in pavement construction. For reflection cracking resistance, fiberglass grid is ‘sandwiched’ between the old and new surface courses of bituminous mixtures and helps retard cracking from reflection through a new bituminous mixture overlay to the surface. For fatigue life enhancement, fiberglass grid is either sandwiched between two new bituminous layers or placed at the bottom of the bituminous layers with proper adhesion. Saint-Gobain ADFORS GlasGrid might be the most tested interlayer product in the market. Since its introduction in the early 80’s, the product has been tested and applied by numerous facilities worldwide.
