Overview

Ten times the strength. A fraction of the weight.

CarboWrap CFRP is a unidirectional carbon fiber fabric for externally bonded reinforcement of concrete, masonry, and timber structures. With tensile strength exceeding 3300 MPa — roughly ten times that of structural steel — installed via wet lay-up with saturating epoxy.

Ofixotech’s flagship carbon-fibre system. Specified on seismic retrofits, change-of-use upgrades, and damage repair across the UAE — from heritage masonry in Sharjah to high-rise slab strengthening in Dubai Marina.

Key Features

  • Tensile strength ≥ 3300 MPa
  • Modulus of elasticity ≥ 230 GPa
  • Light weight — minimal added dead load
  • Corrosion-immune — does not rust like steel
  • Thin profile — does not reduce headroom
  • Wet lay-up with structural saturating epoxy
