Fiber-reinforced plastics/composites are combinations of different materials. The processes for component production and the areas of application are just as diverse as the possible combinations of raw materials and input materials. The two main areas of application for composites today are the mobility and infrastructure sectors, including the automotive industry. Energy management. With a share ... Read more
Composites are often regarded as the material of the future, especially in the areas of infrastructure/construction and mobility. Some of these materials are already firmly established in a wide range of applications. With a market share of over 95%, glass fiber-reinforced plastics are clearly the dominant material group. Our webinar "Composites Market Compact" analyzes the ... Read more

Nowadays, fiber composites are used in a wide variety of applications and, thanks to their lightweight construction potential, have become indispensable in many areas. As various types of waste are generated along the process chain and ultimately at the end of the use phase and the production of reinforcing fibers usually requires a lot of ... Read more
In the production of biocomposites, a matrix material (plastic) is processed with fibers as a reinforcing material, whereby at least one component must be obtained from a renewable resource by definition. This results in new sustainable materials that have exceptional mechanical properties and can be used in lightweight construction. Fibers made from flax, hemp or ... Read more
