Lightweight construction with PU composites

In times of climate protection, energy saving and resource conservation, the subject lightweight construction has become a mega-trend during the last years. We meet these challenges with smart material combinations i.e. sandwich composites of puropreg® matrix systems and glass fibres combined with paper honeycomb cores. In spray technique, components with high bending stiffness and low weight can be realized. LFI processing is an additional production version, with or without core material. High-end lightweight solutions can be achieved by compact puropreg® matrix systems and their processing via spraying, wet pressing or RTM technique. Also a combination with carbon fibres is possible.

You can also get our composites components with sophisticated surface refinement: supported by multimaterial/hybrid solutions with appropriate PU casting systems i.e. puroclear® or purorim® in combination with high-quality moulds.

PU composites with puropreg® can be applied in various fields – next to the automotive sector also in the areas of commercial vehicles, construction and agricultural machines and, with appropriate flame protection, in railway vehicle manufacturing.
