Cost-effective Composites: Processes Using Carbon Fiber

 

It’s likely that you could be saving money on materials to create a product of equal durability, strength and quality.  Carbon fiber is incredibly industrious, often an option that can be substituted in your manufacturing process–and/or used to create new products–especially when recycled.

 

Switching to carbon fiber isn’t just about your balance sheet. It weighs less than conventional materials, so products made from carbon fiber are lighter and perform more efficiently.

 

What processes use recycled carbon fiber seamlessly?
