Making public transport safer with anti-microbial grab poles
A lightweight roll cage for the electric HIPERCAR
Award-winning project which makes light rail even lighter!
Manufacturing composite leaf springs in under 5 minutes
Proving basalt fibre can be just as strong as S2 glass, and more affordable
Cheaper, lighter and safer pressure vessels
Yep, you read that right. Forget everything you thought you knew about advanced composite manufacturing.
Using thermoplastic, we can braid components quickly and at scale, with costs equivalent to more traditional materials. It’s all down to our award-winning technology, which automates the composite manufacturing process. This enables us to reduce labour costs by up to 90% and waste by 95%.
We design and make components that are as strong as steel and 60% lighter. Our process involves braiding a thermoplastic matrix with materials like carbon fibre, glass fibre and basalt for superior performance.
Our thermoplastic materials are inherently recyclable, our processes are energy efficient and cut waste by up to 95%, plus our products are lightweight. This leads to de-carbonisation throughout the product lifecycle.
We can produce up to 100,000 parts each year at a cost similar to traditional manufacturing. How? With an automated process that cuts labour by up to 90%.
Unique anti-microbial grab poles for public transport, to help stop the spread of infections.
