In Ecuador, the construction industry faces unique challenges due to the country's high seismic activity and the varied humidity between the Guayas coast and the Andean highlands. The traditional use of simple mortar often leads to severe cracking, creating a critical demand for high-quality fiberglass mesh fabric to stabilize external and internal wall surfaces.
The humid tropical climate in cities like Guayaquil accelerates the degradation of standard building materials. The alkaline nature of cement, combined with moisture, requires the adoption of alkali resistant fiberglass mesh to prevent the glass fibers from corroding, ensuring that the reinforcement remains effective for decades.
Currently, there is a significant shift in the Ecuadorian market towards rapid urbanization in Quito and Cuenca. This has led to an increased adoption of drywall systems, where drywall fiberglass mesh is becoming the standard for achieving seamless, crack-free joints in modern apartment complexes.
