Carbon Pultrusion

Gurit Structural Profiles’ pultruded carbon fiber profiles help to strengthen constructions in some of the world’s longest wind turbine blades.

PULTRUDED CARBON SPAR CAPS

Gurit Structural Profiles’ pultruded carbon profiles are engineered to purpose and manufactured to fit the specific requirements desired by our customers.

Pultrusion is the most cost effective way of converting carbon fibers into profiles. The continuous process ensures products with a minimum of variation and superior mechanical properties that save significant amounts of material.

Our carbon pultrusion lines run 24/7 and have a capacity of several thousand tons per year.
