Our company uses fibres for screeding and we use a company called Adfil, they seem quite reasonable on price but I'm not sure about small quantities. They can be contacted on 01482 863777. Alternatively, I did see some the other week in our local B&Q near the cement section - maybe worth a look if you have one nearby.

I wondered if synthetic fibre cloth cut into small squares would unravel in a food processor. Havent tried it - and it would be very thin fibres.
