Design for Manufacturing
We design composites for production from the start. Geometry, materials, reinforcement, assembly, and process are defined together to ensure scalable manufacturing without redesign.
Manufacturing as a Service
Advanced composite manufacturing at scale.
We provide high-speed FRP composite manufacturing from prototype to serial production. We support design for manufacturing, material and process selection, and scalable production setup.
Discuss your project
Up to 10×faster production cycles
One partner end-to-end.
Manufacturing pathway
We make composite assemblies manufacturable.
Prototype
Rapid prototyping to validate geometry, performance, and structural behaviour. Uses the same manufacturing principles as serial production to ensure direct scalability.
Serial Production
Transition to volume manufacturing with focus on repeatability, process stability, and efficiency. Cycle times can be reduced by up to 10× compared to conventional methods.
Fibre-Reinforced Polymer Composites
High-performance lightweight structures with design flexibility.
- High specific strength-to-weight ratio
- Complex geometries
- Repeatable production
- Reduced structural mass (up to 80% vs steel, design dependent)
- Scalable manufacturing
- Integrated sensing capability
Integrated Sensing
Structural and functional integration in a single process.
Sensors can be integrated during manufacturing where required, enabling structural and functional integration in a single process.
Applications
Advanced composites across critical systems.
Unmanned Systems
Composite structures for USV, UUV, and UAV platforms.
Optimised for low mass and scalable production.
Water Purification
Composite pressure vessels for Bluewater Emergency Station 1.
Capacity up to 20 m³/day of purified water.
Buffer Tanks
Lightweight composite tanks for industrial systems.
For compressed air, heating, and industrial systems with reduced mass and flexible geometry.
