ERCON Pultruded Carbon Fibre reinforced (CFRP) Plates, used to strengthen existing structural members. These ERCON Plates provide additional reinforcement that strengthens and stiffens existing structure. Unlike Steel Plates, ERCON Carbon Laminates are light weight, easy to install and does not corrode. These Plates can be used in surface mounted applications where it is bonded onto the surface of a structural member where these Carbon Plates are installed in shallow grooves cut into the existing structural member. The Plate is bonded using Epoxy Resin specifically suited for the application. The final result is an externally bonded reinforcement system offering an outstanding long term chemical and mechanical properties.
OBELISK Pultruded CFRP Plates strengthen existing structures by providing additional reinforcement and stiffness. Unlike steel plates, OBELISK Carbon Laminates are lightweight, easy to install, and corrosion-resistant. They can be surface-mounted, bonded with epoxy resin in shallow grooves on structural members, offering long-term chemical and mechanical strength.
