Join a knowledgeable panel of experts for this one hour webinar to discover untapped benefits, practical tradeoffs and how you can start using composites to find better engineering solutions for your products, equipment and structures.
As an engineering leader we understand you are under pressure to control costs while completing projects on an ever tighter timeline. Adding composites to design and engineering toolboxes has helped engineering teams improve everything from pipes to bridges to wind turbines and cars. But how can they help you?
Join our panel of experts for this one hour webinar, led by Jeff Sloan, Editor of CompositesWorld, to discover untapped benefits, practical tradeoffs and how you can start using composites to find better engineering solutions for your products, equipment and structures.
You’ve heard about the mechanical properties composites offer – light weight, high strength, unbeatable durability. Now see how other companies like yours are using composite, the results they’ve achieved and the reasons you absolutely need to integrate composites now to stay competitive including:
- Cost savings compared to traditional materials e.g. wood, steel, concrete
- Improved performance
- Extended product lifecycle
- Getting to market faster – reduce time from concept to reality
