WHAT IS ?
CFS ProSlab is a slab design that offers flat smooth and virtually curl free floors with fewer joints by using a time tested technology that has proven to be superior to the commonly used slab designs. The industry now refers to this technology as wideslab construction.
Wideslab construction is a method of designing and constructing a slab-on-ground in which individual slab panels extend at least 50’ in at least one dimension. Wideslab construction relies on methods other than joints to control cracks and curling.
FS ProSlab uses Single Course Installation giving the slab continuity from “top to bottom”. Our floors provide a beautiful, durable finish that meets or exceeds design requirements, and owner’s expectations.
Joints after 20 years service
While many owners, developers and engineers consider wideslab construction a new
process, Mike McPhee has been developing and perfecting wideslab design, using steel
fiber technology, for decades. It wasn’t until 2015, two years after starting Concrete Fiber
Solutions (in partnership with Global Material Technologies), that the term “wideslab” was
truly recognized within construction nomenclature. And shortly thereafter, CFS branded
Mike’s design concept with the CFS ProSlab name.
The tremendous benefits wideslab floors offer are the solutions that manu-
facturers with diverse product lines and production needs have been seek-
ing for years. Large food companies such as Pepsi, Frito-Lay, and Goya
Foods have installed CFS ProSlab floors because they have significantly less
maintenance issues with fewer joints and cracks. And precision companies
such as Rolls-Royce, Gulfstream and Woodward find the elimination of
cracks and curling in their CFS ProSlab floors to be an integral element
needed to achieve the highly calibrated products they produce.

EXAMPLES OF FLOORS -
“Our new floor has exceeded our expectations. We are pleased with the
quality of the floor, both esthetically and functionally. Fewer joints,
easier installation, less visible cracking, and less impact on us financially are
the top reasons why will always use a CFS ProSlab wideslab floor.”
