Fiberglass Yarn Fabric Reinforcements  for transport  applications

Composite materials have become widely used in automotive applications because of their high strength, corrosion resistance and low weight
 Composite materials are used in a number of applications within the transportation sector from body panels, radiators and ignition components on passenger vehicles, to the side panels on light- and heavy-duty trucks. The benefits of using composites include greater fuel efficiency, corrosion resistance, low weight and high strength. Composites also provide a cost effective way to develop innovative, contemporary designs.
Our glass fibre products are used in the manufacture of a variety of composites used in the assembly of passenger vehicles and light or heavy duty trucks in the UK including:
SMC body panels for car including Aston Martin
Headliner boards for Jaguar, Toyota and Land Rover
Continuous laminated panels for truck trailers for supermarkets
Continuous laminated panels for recreational vehicles such as caravans and motorhomes
Car muffler/exhaust for OEM manufacturers and after sales repairs/support 
 

Reinforcements for  Marine applications

Composites bring a myriad of benefits to marine applications, including high strength, reduced weight, corrosion resistance, dimensional stability and design flexibility.
 Composite materials can be used in a variety of applications in the marine market, including materials used in the construction, maintenance and repair of powerboats, yachts and other crafts.
Pre-preg fabrics for resin-infusion of boats
Multi-axial fabrics for boats

Reinforcements  for electrical  applications

The benefits of using composites in electrical applications include high strength, low weight, fire resistance, dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance.
 Composite applications for electrical and electronics markets include light poles, circuit boards, electrical junction boxes and ladder rails.
Thermoplastic compounds for various electrical plugs, sockets etc.
BMC mouldings for electrical switch-gear for the electrical supply industry

Reinforcements  for construction  applications
