Our materials play a vital role in tank and pipe manufacturing, where they offer enhanced corrosion resistance and facilitate surface thermoplastic welded testing and static dissipation. Developed with binders that can be soluble or insoluble in main resin systems, our materials are versatile, suitable for both hand lay-up and winding processes. They are meticulously designed to conform to complex bends, corners, and contours, ensuring optimal performance in various applications. Moreover, our binder selection enhances fast wet-out and facilitates rapid de-airing processes, contributing to efficient production and consistent quality.

One of our notable products is a conductive carbon fiber tape specifically designed for “spark testing” of thermoplastic welds in dual laminate tanks and pipes, ensuring reliability and safety in critical applications.

In the realm of fiber-reinforced plastic pipes and tanks, where a corrosion-resistant or electrostatically dissipative layer is crucial, our conductive veil range provides a tailored solution. Comprising a series of carbon fiber veils meticulously designed for the chemical and petrochemical industries, these veils offer essential protection and performance in demanding environments.

Our materials find extensive use across various industrial applications, including pultruded handrails, walkways, cable trays, EMI shielding applications, composite roll surfaces, honeycomb facing papers, circuit board reinforcement, fuel cell components, and thin film adhesive substrates, showcasing their versatility and adaptability.

In conductive product applications, our veils and mats utilize the electrically conductive nature of carbon, metal-coated carbon, and metallic fibers to achieve various levels of surface and bulk conductivity in composite components. From surface static dissipation to EMI/RFI shielding and radar signature management, our products offer tailored solutions to meet diverse application requirements. Blending carbon with non-conductive fibers optimizes conductivity and cost-effectiveness, while highly conductive nickel-coated carbon fibers provide exceptional attenuation of electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. Our AS9000 approved materials are customized to customer specifications for radar signature management and low observable applications. Metal and metal-coated carbon fibers are utilized for bulk conductivity and heat dissipation in lightning strike protection applications. Additionally, conductive veils are employed in heating elements and de-icing systems, expanding their utility and functionality.

In the realm of sports goods manufacturing, our carbon fiber veils and mats, aramid and PBO veils and mats, and blends of fibers enhance aesthetics, impact resistance, wear resistance, and interlaminar shear strength in various equipment such as fly rods, kayaks, skis, bicycles, and boats, contributing to superior performance and durability in a variety of sporting applications.
