The complete carbon-fiber structural repair system — ICC-ES certified, North American manufactured, installed in a day.
A fundamentally different approach to structural repair — engineered around the problems steel creates below-grade.
Carbon fiber's ultimate stress is 5–10× steel's yield. One strap carries more load than #4 rebar, and it never corrodes.
100% non-corrosive. No rust, no oxidation, no re-corroding steel. No periodic inspection cycles. No callbacks.
Single-day install, no excavation, no exterior disruption. Less concrete removed, less epoxy, less labour.
A single 6″-wide 400 GSM unidirectional Rhino strap carries 19,884 lbs — 1.7× the load of #4 steel rebar's 11,781 lbs. In one installation. In one day. With zero corrosion.
Complete system from a single source — no second vendor needed for residential, commercial, or civil repair.
Bonds carbon fiber to sill plate AND footing. No excavation, single-day install, paintable. The flagship.
Outperforms rebar stitching. Single saw cut, less concrete removed, non-corrosive. From foundations to bridges.
Structural strengthening for beams, slabs, columns, walls. ICC-ES certified, ACI 440 design values.
Uni & bidirectional weaves for poured and block walls. Strength + waterproofing in one install.
Targeted reinforcement for foundation corners — the common first-failure point.
Complete crack-injection ecosystem. Moisture-tolerant, rapid cure, cures stronger than concrete.
When a contractor has any foundation or concrete repair problem, Rhino has the answer — and a single technical line to call.
The case for switching, side by side.
| Factor | Steel / Excavation | Rhino Carbon Fiber |
|---|---|---|
| Strength | Comparable / Variable | 1.7× #4 rebar per strap |
| Corrosion | Steel corrodes below-grade, requires maintenance | 100% non-corrosive, never degrades |
| Installation | Multi-day, disruptive excavation, heavy equipment | Single-day, no excavation, minimal equipment |
| Aesthetics | Protruding steel beams and wall anchors | Flat, paintable, nearly invisible |
| Maintenance | Periodic inspection and repair cycle | None required |
| Square Footage | Lost to protruding reinforcement | Zero lost |
The dormant-account activation pitch — enablement, not procurement.
The single strongest sales number in the line — application-specific, engineer-credible.
Single-day installs mean faster jobs, higher margins, and no excavation costs.
No rust, no maintenance, no callbacks — contractors walk away confident.
"We train your reps — and their contractor customers earn continuing education credits. That's enablement that makes your branch smarter, at zero cost to you."
The credibility layer that wins PEs and code officials — not marketing claims.
Engineers and contractors with project-specific questions call Philip D. Costantini, CET — Senior Technical Manager, North America — directly. Not a call center. An engineer.
Rhino Carbon Fiber is the complete structural repair system — engineered, tested, and field-proven. Faster install, higher margin, zero callbacks.
