PART
CONSOLIDATION
• Easier installation
and assembly with
fewer parts
• Simplified transport
of finished goods
• Fewer parts = reduced
chance of failure
Value that the U.S. composite
materials market is expected to
reach by 2022
$10.6B
50% Amount of weight reduction that advanced composites could bring to passenger cars, leading to 35% better fuel efficiency
7% CAGR that analyst firm Technavio forecasts the global medical composite materials market will experience from 2016–2020
Fiber-reinforced polymer composites combine thermoset
or thermoplastic resins with fiber reinforcement, the resulting
product having substantially different properties than the
individual components.
Advantages
Recyclability, enhanced toughness, chemical
resistance, noise and vibration damping,
post-formability, and lower density
DURABILITY
STRENGTH
• Corrosion resistance for
marine and deep water
applications
• Improved shock
resistance with
aramid fibers
• Protection from shrapnel
for military barriers
• Structural performance in
aerospace and marine markets
• High tensile strength for
industrial applications
