Carbon Fiber Wraps / Fabrics
Carbon Fiber Fabrics are highly effective for structural strengthening, offering an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and resistance to environmental stressors. Made from woven carbon fibers, they are commonly used in construction, infrastructure, and retrofitting projects. Here’s why carbon fabrics are favored for structural reinforcement:

Technical detail
Exceptional Tensile Strength: Carbon fibers are incredibly strong, providing high load-bearing capacity, which can significantly enhance structural integrity.
Lightweight: Despite their strength, carbon fabrics are lightweight, making them ideal for reinforcing structures without adding excessive load.
Corrosion Resistance: Carbon does not corrode like steel, which means it offers long-lasting reinforcement even in harsh environments.
Fatigue Resistance: Carbon fibers maintain their strength over repeated stress cycles, providing durable support for load-bearing applications.
Concrete and Masonry Strengthening: Carbon fabrics bonded to concrete increase load capacity, reduce cracking, and improve structural performance.
Seismic Retrofitting: In earthquake-prone areas, carbon fabrics are applied to absorb and dissipate seismic energy, reducing structural failure risks.
Bridge and Infrastructure Rehabilitation: Carbon fabrics are used to strengthen bridges, tunnels, and other aging infrastructures, extending their operational lifespan.
Strengthening of Beams, Columns, and Slabs: Carbon fabrics reinforce these critical structural components, enhancing their load-bearing capacities without compromising space or weight.
Unidirectional Fabrics: Designed for strength in one direction, ideal for areas requiring targeted reinforcement.
Bidirectional Fabrics: Provide balanced strength across two directions, suitable for multi-directional loads.
Carbon fabrics are typically bonded to structures using high-strength epoxies or resins. Once applied, they create a reinforced composite that integrates with the original structure, greatly enhancing its mechanical properties and resilience.
BhorForce® range of Woven Unidirectional and Bidirectional Carbon Fiber Products
BhorForce® range of Unidirectional Woven Carbon Fiber fabrics have 98% of the carbon fibers in the 0 direction allowing the users to have a preferred orientation in their lay-up scheme to optimize the required strength and stiffness depending on the forces acting on the component thus also allowing reduction in overall weigh of the component by taking full advantage of the anisotropic nature of the composite reinforcements.
BhorForce® range of unidirectional woven fabrics are stabilized using a proprietary technique allowing easy handling of the Undirectional reinforcements during cutting and lay-up.
BhorForce® range of Bidirectional Woven Carbon Fiber Fabrics suitable for Structural Strengthening have equal weigh distribution of the Carbon Fiber in both 0 degree and 90 degree orientations.
A complete basket of Unidirectional and Bidirectional BhorForce® reinforcements are available for Strengthening and Retrofitting of structures using the FRP route as well as structural elements of various composite products used for various applications. As a leading carbon fiber supplier in India, we ensure the highest quality materials to meet the diverse needs of our clients.
