In Argentina, the construction sector faces significant challenges due to high thermal amplitude and seismic activities in regions like Mendoza. Traditional plastering methods often suffer from shrinkage cracks, leading to a surge in demand for fiberglass mesh for plastering to provide essential tensile strength.
The economic landscape has pushed contractors toward efficiency. The adoption of self adhesive fiberglass mesh is increasing in urban centers like Buenos Aires, where rapid renovation of commercial spaces requires materials that reduce installation time without compromising quality.
Furthermore, the chemical composition of local cements often requires highly stable materials. The use of alkali resistant fiberglass mesh has become a non-negotiable standard for EIFS and ETICS systems to prevent the glass fibers from degrading in the highly alkaline environment of wet mortar.
