| Outstanding Electrical Insulation Capability for Low- and Medium-Voltage Our composites feature inherently good dielectric properties. Specific grades add flame resistance, arc/track resistance and high temperature resistance. This is why they are used as components in delicate electronic devices, as well as rugged parts in transformers and switchgear. | |
| High Mechanical Strength — Yet Lightweight Composite materials have a very high strength to weight ratio. They provide many of the structural characteristics of metal or wood, but weigh less. A broad selection of reinforcing materials, resins, and other raw materials allow us to optimize a composite design to meet customer requirements. | |
| Flame, Smoke and Toxicity Many of our FRP composites offer exceptional flame resistance. A wide selection of materials are available to meet class 1 fire rating standards. Certain grades of FRP composite materials generate very low smoke and smoke toxicity when exposed to fire. | |
| Heat Resistance Heat resistant grades of our engineered plastic composites offer property retention and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures. | |
| Abrasion and Impact Resistance Our reinforced engineered composites can withstand the effects of abrasion and impact better than most conventional materials such as hardwood and other thermoplastic or thermoset panels. | |
| Corrosion Resistance These reinforced materials are ideal for use where clean and attractive surfaces are desired and corrosion resistance is required. | |
| Ease of Fabrication Our channels, bars, rods and shapes can be fabricated using common tools and equipment. They can be punched, drilled, milled, sawed, sanded, sheared or routed. | |
| Cost Effective When compared to high-pressure laminates such as epoxy, melamine, silicone or mica, our engineered composites offer an exceptional value. |
