About
RePoly is an innovative solution for sustainable construction, offering recycled fibre reinforcement as a replacement for traditional steel reinforcement. Made entirely from 100% recycled plastic, RePoly plays a crucial role in the circular economy by repurposing waste materials. This versatile product can be used in a wide range of applications, including shared-use paths, cycleways, pavements, car parks, drains, precast products, and traffic islands. One of the key benefits of using RePoly in your projects is its potential to significantly reduce the carbon footprint and of your assets, as highlighted in the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD). Additionally, the use of RePoly can streamline construction processes, helping to save time on-site. Produced in Australia, RePoly is manufactured from waste plastic and packaged by McCallum Industries in Victoria, which supports the employment of disabled individuals under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). The product’s environmental impact has been thoroughly assessed, with its EPD certified according to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards. This certification, detailing the environmental footprint of RePoly, is available on our website. RePoly has undergone extensive testing to ensure compliance with industry standards, including EN14899-2 for macro poly fibres in concrete, Vic Roads Section 703.14, QLD DTMR MRTS 273 and ASTM C 1116. To further support your projects, we offer comprehensive design and engineering services for fibre-reinforced concrete applications. Our team is fully equipped to certify the use of RePoly in the design of pavements, precast and other infrastructure.
Sustainability Outcomes
RePoly offers a valuable opportunity to enhance the sustainability of your infrastructure projects, particularly by reducing life cycle impacts when compared to traditional steel mesh reinforcement. By incorporating RePoly into your design, you can significantly lower the carbon footprint of your project. RePoly’s Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is certified to both ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards, which means that by using RePoly, you may qualify for points under ISv2.1 Rso-7 and ISv1.2 Mat-2 categories. This certification underscores the environmental benefits of the product, supporting your project’s sustainability goals. At Danbar, we are committed not only to reducing the environmental impact of our products but also to driving social sustainability initiatives. RePoly is packaged by employees of McCallum Industries, an Australian disability enterprise, through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). This initiative aligns with the social sustainability objectives of the ISv2.1 Sustainable Procurement category and the ISv1.2 Procurement and Purchasing category, contributing positively to your sustainability and procurement strategy. By integrating RePoly into your project, you support both environmental and social sustainability, making a meaningful impact across multiple dimensions of your infrastructure development.

| Inn-1 (ISv1.2) | RePoly fibres contribute to Innovation Challenge 8: Sustainable Suppliers and ISupply. |
| Inn-1 (Isv2.1) | RePoly fibres contribute to Innovation Challenge 4: Sustainable Suppliers and ISupply. |
| Mat-1 (ISv1.2) | Danbar RePoly fibres can play a crucial role in helping your project meet ISv1.2 Mat-1 requirements by significantly reducing life cycle impacts when compared to traditional steel mesh solutions. Construction companies choosing RePoly benefit not only from its performance during the infrastructure's life cycle but also from its sustainability advantages at the end of that cycle. Unlike steel mesh, which typically requires complex separation and processing during recycling, RePoly fibres remain embedded in the crushed concrete, simplifying the recycling process. By integrating Danbar RePoly fibres, your project supports sustainable construction practices, decreases waste, and enhances long-term resource efficiency. |
| Mat-2 (ISv1.2) | RePoly has an EPD certified to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 you may receive points in ISv1.2 Mat-2 when using our RePoly fibres on your project. |
| Rso-6 (ISv2.1) | Danbar RePoly fibres can help your project meet ISv2.1 Rso-6 requirements by significantly reducing life cycle impacts when compared to a traditional steel mesh base case. Additionally, construction companies benefit from using Danbar fibres as they are fully recyclable at the end of the infrastructure's life. The fibres remain in the crushed concrete, making the recycling process seamless, supporting sustainability and circular economy goals. |
| Rso-7 (ISv2.1) | RePoly has an EPD certified to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 you may receive points in ISv2.1 Rso-7 when using our RePoly Fibres on your project. |
