Other Composite Applications

Advanced composites for industrial applications

The opportunities for using composites exist everywhere and they are often selected for their versatility and low weight, allowing projects to reach performance and/or design levels not achievable with other construction materials.

Gurit’s depth of expertise and experience of working with demanding applications makes us the ideal partner for any general industrial project considering composite construction. 

We offer a full range of composite materials for the spectrum of processing technologies, complemented by structural engineering design, materials and panel testing, kitting, flat panel manufacture, tooling fabrication and prototyping. 

Industrial sectors benefiting from working with Gurit and composites include: 

  • Architecture
  • Infrastructure
  • Agriculture
  • Medical
  • Sports Goods
  • Mining
  • Electronics
