RenewWrap FRP Structural Strengthening System
The RenewWrap® CFRP system is engineered to structurally strengthen columns, walls, piers, slabs and most other structural members of bridges, buildings, parking decks, and other facilities and structures. It is designed to restore strength to deteriorated and compromised structures, as well as improve overall structural performance. This product is ideal for the demanding and extreme repairs that are often required in industrial facilities.
RenewWrap comprises a range of carbon and glass FRP fabrics and compatible saturating resins or epoxies. The collection of products is designed to address a variety of different applications and project requirements. The RenewWrap carbon fabrics come in an easy to handle 50-yard roll length and is also available with our proprietary EZ-Slit™ option which makes the process of cutting it to width, trouble-free.
EZ-Slit - No-Fray FRP slitting
EZ-Slit enables accurate, correct width cutting with no fraying, minimal waste, and efficient wet-out with resin on site. This means a more efficient installation, and because EZ-Slit cannot fray, less fibers are released during the cutting process meaning a safer environment for the installer and the surrounding environment.
As part of a family of solutions, RenewWrap FRP can be used in conjunction with other GeoTree products such as GeoStrong geopolymer patching materials and NSM CFRP bars to solve the most complex issues.
With over 20 years of use, hundreds of projects completed, ICC-ES certification, and approvals by most DOTs across the U.S., RenewWrap FRP is a proven and reliable system that asset owners, engineers, and contractors have come to rely upon time and again.

Structural Strengthening Solutions
At GeoTree, we solve infrastructure challenges differently. More than just a materials provider, we partner with the industry to deliver smart, practical, innovative solutions. Our solutions
rehabilitate, strengthen, and protect infrastructure components.
Testing RenewWrap® CFRP
Our Structures Laboratory was established to support our research into the fire resistance of concrete members strengthened with FRPs. The lab has the capability of doing large-scale structural testing at temperatures up to 500°F.
A 250,000 lb load frame along with state-of-art electronic instrumentation is used to support the development of new products and applications. With our in-house testing capabilities, we can help you validate design details unique to your project. In addition, we have extensive mechanical and physical property testing capabilities. We are capable of performing a range of ASTM tests to fully characterize our FRP strengthening systems.
