Business description

The company manufactures specialist carbon fibre and advanced composite materials, with the manufacturing technology and resin matrix chemistry having been solely developed and guarded in-house.
The company operates a sophisticated, well-equipped analytical laboratory to support new product development and provide internal quality control.
The company has secured a strong market position for its developed, proven products that are qualified for stable long-term customers, which provides significant barriers to competitor entry.
Our clients are now offering the company for sale to facilitate their retirement plans and enable growth under the impetus of new ownership.
