Innovation in composites: Explore now.

Hosted by JEC

The marine market for composites consists of the manufacture of a wide range of boats, ships, and other sea vehicles, as well as various key elements such as mast, sails, rigging, rudders, and propellers. Thus, marine applications of composites are noticeable and seen everywhere. As a non-profit organization entirely dedicated to promoting composite materials and fostering their applications globally, JEC will host this session and share some of the latest innovations and updates in this sector. During this panel Curveworks and Structteam will showcase and highlight the benefits of new adaptative molding and structural design technologies to design and manufacture hulls. On the rigging and sails side, we will highlight composites rigging and load sensing technologies developed by Future Fibers and Synapse, already adopted by superyachts as well as America’s Cup teams, but also from the same group of companies, present the commitment of North Sails to offer upcycling and sustainable end-of life solutions.
