Fibrtec Inc. manufactures patented commercialized and game changing high performance thermoplastic composites prime ready in the replacement of metals as low cost, high volume solutions for structural components for the composite hungry automotive/transportation industries. The current high mileage mandate for the automotive industry and the desire for “green” materials and energy saving processes have both created market demand for Fibrtec’s products and technology, therefore Fibrtec is seeking growth capital to enter the mass production automotive market and leverage its global strong competitive advantages. Fibrtec serves competitively today with composite solutions targeted at the oil and gas, automotive, military, aerospace, energy, medical and specialty sporting goods applications.
Fibrflex® is Fibrtec’s core product. It is uniquely flexible and yarn-like and when weaved into fabric form, it readily adapts to the shape of a mold, where in the presence of heat and pressure it is converted into a lightweight high strength part. The process is quicker, the tooling cost is lower, and it offers substantive automation ideal for mass production. The lower energy requirement coupled with being fully recyclable bolsters its recognition and value in the market. Conversely, the competition’s material is a stiff rigid tape, which is brittle and cardboard like, and cannot easily be converted to complex shapes at low cost. Additionally, when Fibrflex® is combined with its patent-pending FireWind™ molding technology, it offers breakthrough manufacturing cycles with 10 –15 % lower cost and productivity rates 3-5 times higher.
