ABOUT CFRW
Carbon fiber reinforced wood (CFRW), laminated timber
that includes layers of highly stiff, thin-walled carbon fiber,
achieves twice
the flexural stiffness of conventional laminated timber.
CFRW offers enhanced durability and design qualities
for use as structural beams.
The targeted development of AFRW,
a more advanced material, is expected
to extend applications to medium-rise buildings.

DETAILS
announced today that it has launched a new project
to develop technology for
advanced fiber-reinforced wood (AFRW),
a structural timber product comprising
a number of layers of dimensioned timber and
high-performance fibers bonded together
with structural adhesives for use
in medium- and low-rise wooden buildings.
Teijin has developed AFRW based on its expertise
in fiber reinforced composites, including
aramid fibers by Teijin and
carbon fiber by Toho Tenax
Opening a new window which is the core company of
the group’s carbon fibers and composites business.
