Reinforce with Confidence: Why Fortress Re:Grid Leads the Way

When it comes to reinforcing concrete structures, Fortress Re:Grid stands out as the premier solution for both commercial and residential applications. Utilizing patented Adhesive Riveting Technology (ART), Re:Grid combines carbon fiber tows with Kevlar® cross threads to form a robust open grid. This grid, when bonded with structural epoxy, creates chemical rivets that integrate seamlessly with the concrete, ensuring unparalleled strength and durability .

Proven Strength Backed by Science and Experience

Time and again, Re:Grid has proven itself—in labs and on live job sites. From seismic retrofitting to crack control in load-bearing walls, this system has exceeded engineering benchmarks across multiple applications. According to Fortress Europe, “Independent testing consistently shows our systems meet or exceed structural requirements,” reinforcing its reputation for reliability.

Moreover, structural engineers and contractors alike praise Re:Grid’s performance. As noted by civil engineering specialist Mark Ellsworth, “Fortress has redefined reinforcement with a product that not only strengthens but extends the life of critical infrastructure.”

Innovative Technology Meets Practical Simplicity

One of the biggest challenges in reinforcement is balancing strength with ease of installation. Re:Grid delivers both. Its lightweight, flexible design allows for quick and clean application, drastically reducing downtime and labor costs. In fact, many contractors report completing installations in half the time compared to traditional steel mesh systems.

Additionally, the grid’s carbon and Kevlar® composition offers long-term durability while resisting corrosion—an essential feature in coastal or high-moisture environments.

Engineered for Modern Challenges

Today’s infrastructure demands more than just strength. It requires resilience, adaptability, and sustainability. That’s why architects and engineers are turning to Re:Grid. Not only does it align with green building standards, but its carbon fiber core also reduces the structural load, supporting lighter, more energy-efficient designs.

As Fortress Europe puts it, “We don’t just reinforce buildings. We future-proof them.” From schools and hospitals to bridges and industrial facilities, Re:Grid has become a go-to for projects that can’t afford failure.

Why Settle for Less When You Can Reinforce with the Best?

While other systems offer short-term fixes, Re:Grid delivers long-term peace of mind. Whether you’re tackling a retrofit or a new build, the decision is clear: choose a solution backed by innovation, proven by testing, and trusted by industry leaders.
