Providing strength
and safety
Marine developments
With the trend toward larger, more luxurious motorboats
and sailing yachts as well as an increase in fast cruising
and racing, the demand for greater strength and safety
in the marine industry has grown in recent years.
With increasing dimensions on one hand and a desire for
higher speeds on the other hand, boat designers and builders
are aiming to reduce the weight of yachts. Furthermore,
they are looking for ways to minimize the impact of collisions
and increase comfort by reducing vibration and noise. This is
where our high-performance fiber Twaron comes in, providing
structural integrity while dampening vibrations and noise.
At Teijin Aramid we are continually supporting our customers
in creating both new and optimized composite structures.
