Pultruded profiles made from thermoplastics have a big eco-advantage over their thermoset counterparts. They are made from a polymer that can be broken down and reformed multiple times without losing its structural integrity. Thermoplastic Pultrusion – the eco option for manufacture Fibre reinforced plastics are becoming the material of choice in a variety of industries […]
New Year traditionally inspires us to improve our personal lives, but here at Pultrex it is an opportunity to push our vision as a company and improve our business. This year we are pleased to announce that as, of 2nd January, Park City are on-board as consultants for our HR Department, in addition to their existing […]
There is a new trend in the construction industry, and it has pultruded profiles at its heart. We take a look at the ways (and whys) architects and construction companies are turning to a material that has superpowers compared to its traditional counterparts. According to the European Pultrusion Technology Association (EPTA), there is an increase […]
Climate change and plastic pollution are hot topics right now, and the world is waking up to the need for change. Here are 10 reasons why pultrusion is an eco-option for manufacturers, and how advances in composite manufacture may enable a move towards greener energy systems overall. The pultrusion process requires far less heat input […]
The three-year ambliFibre Project, focussed on developing new technologies for an enhanced, automated and quality-assured production of tubular composite components, concluded on October 11, 2018 in a live demonstration of the Laser-Assisted Fibre-Reinforced Tape Winding process. The project has been hailed a success, and the technology and feasibility declared robust by the head of Research […]

Pultrex has always been committed to be the market leader in composite technology, and the latest company changes promise to deliver even more focus on product development. Ian Raymant is taking his senior management training a step further by stepping up from the general manager role at Pultrex to Operations Director. This will see his […]
Composites have amazing qualities, and many advantages over their traditional counterparts. While these advantages are often hailed in the aerospace industry, it is within civil engineering that we can really see the benefits of using composite pultruded profiles on a wide scale. What makes composites a good choice for hot climates, places that experience heatwaves, […]
Expanding manufacturing capabilities and traceability protocols when budget constraints are in place can slow the pace of innovation, and potential profits, but what if you could add to your existing product line and systems rather than replace the whole lot? Aerospace and defence are ideal examples of industries where the expanding technology means new lines […]
Turn to page 34 in The April/May 2018 edition of Composites in Manufacturing and you’ll find a three-page article about the latest trends, demands, and challenges in the global pultrusion, pull winding, and filament winding industry – according to Pultrex. Here are some highlights from the article! Industry 4.0 (i4.0) Pultrex has been providing data from […]
There is a filament winding machine in development that has the potential to replace current FRP (fibre reinforced plastic) production methods. It uses revolutionary laser technology to improve process control, from cradle to grave it looks set to produce fewer emissions than traditional machines, and there is far less waste in the manufacture of products […]
