They can be used alone or in conjunction with other materials such as thermoplastics, wood, and metal, and manufactured with techniques such as overmolding, coextrusion, and thermal lamination to incorporate CFRTP tapes and laminates into hybrid, multi-material structures. The adhesive properties of thermoplastics enable the construction of sandwich panels and reinforcement of materials such as wood and metal through thermal lamination without requiring additional adhesives. Building & Construction: Reinforcement of wood products & plywood, structural sandwich panels, window lineals, ceiling tiles, pipe reinforcement

GridCore™ Composite Utility Poles from Avient are engineered to enhance grid resilience as an excellent alternative to wood, steel, or concrete electrical poles and structures. The extended lifecycle can result in overall cost savings compared to wood poles, which require replacement every 30-40 years due to aging, damage, or failure. Lightweight = Safe, Simple Installation: Significantly lighter comparable to wood and concrete poles, GridCore poles can be installed using light-duty equipment and without expensive cranes.
