The FORTA Mission
Circles of Strength
The FORTA logo was originally designed to represent a cross-section of the company’s reinforcement fibers. Today, it also serves as a “Circle of Strength” – with each of its individual components symbolically representing the company’s many distinctive products and services as well as its unconditional commitment to the customers, business partners and industries it serves.
Harry Henrich – Lane Construction Corporation
“…for the last 30+ years I have used FORTA’s product in concrete as a quality control technician, and witnessed its durability and performance, I was more than willing to promote it for asphalt.”
Anthony R. DeCarlo Jr., CPC - TWC Concrete Services, LLC
FORTA-FERRO® fibers exceed my expectations every time I use them.
Jim Jordan - NYDOT
‘Adding fibers at the HMA/WMA Plant is relatively an easy process and it doesn’t impact the overall paving process- the contractor doesn’t need to change/alter their paving “plan”.’
Key Precast
“Fiber allows us to offer our customers a better product, with better structure and integrity.”
Daniel Larson, P.E. – Reith-Riley, Lansing
“I have to say that the process you have developed for the introduction of the additive was the most seamless that I have ever used. I look forward to working with you guys again soon.”
