CFRP Wrapping
Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is a fast, non-invasive solution for upgrading concrete structures - ideal for seismic retrofits, increased load demands, and change-of-use renovations. CFRP delivers reliable, code-compliant reinforcement with minimal disruption. Backed by DYWIDAG’s global expertise, our U.S.-based CFRP solutions are designed to meet the challenges of modern infrastructure.
Advanced strengthening for evolving structures
Today, structural performance and safety are under increasing scrutiny, DYWIDAG’s Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Solutions offer a modern, minimally invasive, and effective answer to concrete strengthening challenges.
Available exclusively in the United States, whether you're retrofitting for seismic resilience, upgrading load capacity, or adapting a structure for a new purpose, CFRP delivers fast, effective reinforcement - without the need for major demolition or downtime. Engineered for efficiency and long-term durability, our solutions help asset owners meet compliance, extend service life, and protect what matters most.
Why choose CFRP wrapping?
High strength-to-weight ratio
Delivers powerful reinforcement without adding significant load to the structure.
Minimal disruption
Applied externally with no need for heavy demolition - ideal for active sites and time-sensitive projects.
Rapid installation
Speeds up project timelines with efficient, straightforward application.
Seismic resilience
Enhances structural performance in earthquake-prone areas.
Code compliance
Supports upgrades for changing use, occupancy, and evolving building regulations.
Flexible application
Suitable for beams, slabs, columns, walls, and more - adapting to the shape and needs of each structure.
Corrosion resistance
Unlike steel, CFRP won’t corrode, making it a long-lasting strengthening option.
Preserves architectural integrity
Thin and discreet, CFRP strengthens without altering the appearance or dimensions of existing structures.

CFRP wrapping systems & applications
Using certified materials and installation methods, we help asset owners, engineers, and contractors reinforce concrete structures with minimal disruption and long-term durability. Our CFRP solutions include:
Carbon Fiber Wraps: High tensile strength, ideal for demanding applications such as shear strengthening and seismic retrofits.
Glass Fiber Wraps: More cost-effective and suited for areas with lower stress requirements.
Prelaminated CFRP Strips: Used for flexural strengthening, especially in slabs and beams with limited access.
Available in unidirectional fabrics for targeted strengthening, multidirectional fabrics for complex stress conditions, and a variety of weights and weaves to match specific design loads and surfaces.
Typical Applications
DYWIDAG CFRP systems are commonly used for:
Shear and flexural strengthening of beams and slabs
Column confinement for axial load increases or seismic upgrades
Crack control and repair in deteriorating concrete
Load upgrades in adaptive reuse projects
Seismic retrofitting for enhanced resilience
Damage recovery following fire, impact, or corrosion
All systems are installed by certified Fyfe CFRP technicians and follow ACI 440 design guidelines, ensuring regulatory compliance and optimal performance.
Designed for hard-to-reach places
CFRP is the ideal solution for strengthening difficult-to-access areas on concrete structures. Its lightweight, flexible design allows for application in tight spaces, around complex geometries, and even overhead - without the need for extensive demolition or heavy equipment.
To ensure your structure is reinforced safely and efficiently, DYWIDAG offers a complete solution through our certified rope access teams. Trained to work at height and in confined spaces, our technicians can install CFRP systems wherever they're needed - whether that’s a high-rise column, underside of a bridge, or remote industrial structure.
Why Rope Access?
Minimally disruptive – No need for scaffolding or lifts
Faster deployment – Reduces setup and shutdown times
Safe and certified – Technicians follow rigorous safety standards
Cost-effective – Lower access costs compared to traditional methods
