The company has vast experience in the manufacture of
composite components covering all disciplines where the
customer or designer requires
-
Superior
strength to weight and stiffness to weight ratios
-
Excellent fatigue resistance
-
Low thermal co efficient
-
Vibration dampening
-
Inert in harsh or corrosive environments
-
Radio, radar and x-ray transparency
-
Electrical insulator or conductor
The inherent strength/stiffness to weight properties of
carbon composite has significant advantages over many
traditional materials and has been utilised to great effect
in the development of composite structural and
non-structural components.

design through the manufacture of tooling block, patterns
and shuttering to mould making, component laminating,
trimming and assembly of the complete bonded structure.
The company has developed an externally assessed NVQ 2
training programme for staff. We have the expertise to
provide a complete design, tooling, manufacturing and
engineering solution to meet the component requirements.
