Glassfiber materials are already used for a lot of non-structural parts like bonnets, spoilers, hoods, body-parts. Lately a lot of development takes place in replacing steel structural bodyparts by carbon fiber reinforced parts.

There is no industrial sector where weight-saving is so important as in Aerospace industry. Although it took a long time to replace steel and aluminium parts today there are numerous fiber reinforced parts in commercial and military aircrafts.

Building commercial ships, recreational yachts, sailboats, catamarans requires materials that meet high specifications and have a long life. Engineers are well known with the advantages of fiber reinforced parts for marine end-uses.

There are numerous applications of composite materials in the defence industry. These materials utilising reinforcements like carbon, glass or aramids are now being more widely accepted as replacement materials for more traditional products.

Composite materials, such as fibre reinforced plastics and sandwich panels, have considerable potential for use in the next generation of public transport structures. They are lightweight, durable, non-corrosive, high fire and smoke resistant and readily moulded to shape.

Important properties of materials for this sector include low weight, high rigidity, low maintenance, easy repair, design flexibility and no corrosion. Composites are widely used in the sports and leisure industry to compete with and complement conventional materials.

Using advanced technology for reinforced fiberglass production, FRP tanks offer reliability, corrosion resistance, low maintenance cost, long life and advanced engineering designs for both aboveground and belowground storage tanks.
