Mmfx Technologies Corporation

MMFX is clearly the most cost-effective reinforcement for the majority of VDOT decks.
Manufactured primarily from recycled scrap, MMFX2 rebar can be found in the world’s best-engineered construction projects. Since 2002, this revolutionary steel product has been specified in public infrastructure and public / private development projects throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Middle East.

MMFX2 (ASTM A103MMFX Technologies Corporation, headquartered in Irvine, California, is a material science company focused on commercializing its patented micro- and nanotechnologies that enable the manipulation of steel microstructure to derive optimum product properties. The Company has successfully commercialized its groundbreaking science through the marketing and sale of its high-demand MMFX2 branded uncoated corrosion-resistant, high strength concrete reinforcing steels (“rebar”). MMFX2 is marketed and sold through its two operating subsidiaries in North America and the Middle East.

MMFX Steel Corporation of America is an operating subsidiary of MMFX Technologies Corporation and is also based in Irvine, California. It markets and sells MMFX2 branded concrete reinforcing steel products directly to end customers throughout North America as well as through distribution partners and by Portland, Oregon-based licensee, Cascade Steel Rolling Mills. Applications include bridges and highway systems, high-rise buildings, foundations, dams, sea walls, wharf and pier structures, and numerous commercial/industrial applications.

MMFX Steel DMCC (“MMFX DMCC”), a Dubai Multi-Commodity Center corporation, is the Middle East subsidiary of MMFX Technologies Corporation. Utilizing its parent company’s proprietary and patented nanotechnology, MMFX DMCC markets and sells the uncoated corrosion-resistant, high-strength concrete reinforcing steel MMFX2, throughout the Middle East and North Africa (“MENA”) region.

MMFX2 is sold globally under various specifications including ASTM A1035/A1035M Grade 100 (690) and Grade 120 (830), ASTM A615 Grade 75, and AASHTO MP18. It is included in specifications published by the American Concrete Institute (ACI), Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI), American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), International Code Council (ICC) as well as part of the design standards for highway structures in several US States and Canadian Provinces.

MMFX2 rebar has been independently tested and proven to be five times more corrosion-resistant and up to two times stronger than conventional steel. The corrosion-resistant properties of MMFX2 rebar result in the lowest life cycle costs compared to other reinforcing steels used for reinforced concrete structures exposed to chlorides such as highway bridges and marine environment installations. The unique technology used in the manufacture of MMFX2 reinforcing steel means that there is no coating that can be damaged, which is a common failure mode in other corrosion resistant rebar products. The higher strength of MMFX2 rebar allows engineers to design and build structures with up to 50% less steel and up to 60% lower labor costs.
