<p>Packeted fibers (10) comprise a plurality of fibers (12) arranged in side-by-side manner, said plurality of fibers (12) being cut perpendicularly to obtain terminal cut ends (14, 16), and said terminal cut fiber ends (14, 16) being separably-binded together by a binding material along a plane defined by said fiber ends (14, 16), whereby said plurality of fibers (12) form a collated packet (10) that facilitates introduction of the fibers (12) into a castable composition, such as a concrete mix, and also facilitates dispersal and substantially uniform distribution of the fibers (12) within the castable composition. Methods for packeting fibers (12) are also disclosed.</p> |
