Automotive Composites: The make-or-break decade for carbon and natural fibres (PDF) Fibre-based composites are becoming increasingly important in the manufacture of automotive components. These new materials look set to continue their penetration of the automotive sector, and their large-scale use in mass-production cars, trucks and other vehicles is being widely predicted. Automotive Composites: The make-or-break decade for carbon and natural fibres, a new report from Textile Media Services published in September 2015, reviews the use of composites in the automotive sector and assesses how far these materials are from being used in mass vehicle production.
Written by Adrian Wilson, this in-depth report, with around 250 pages and more than 50 tables, provides a sustainable roadmap for the automotive composites industry for the next decade and beyond. It includes detailed analyses of the production and markets for carbon fibres, glass fibres and natural fibres, and profiles of leading suppliers of these input materials.

There was a time when megayacht owners relegated luxurious fabrics to the interiors of their yachts. But Extex fabrics, made solely for the megayacht industry, are turning more and more clients on to the concept of treating their exterior spaces as showcases, too. To that end, Extex, used aboard notable megayachts like Adastra and Nirvana, among others, has a new line of luminescent fabrics called Solar that come alive at night.
First, a little background. Extex was created in 2002 by Marina Mill, a family business producing high-end interior fabrics for fine homes, yachts, and megayachts for more than two decades. The move was made in response to the belief—quite right, we might add—that deck furnishings were dull. With the Solar fabric collection, Extex is adding a bit more fun to deck chairs, lounges, dining areas, and more. Solar comes in three color patterns, aptly named for planets: Mars (sandy tones), Neptune (light-gray tones), and Venus (creamy vanilla tones). Transports Publics 2014 - Résultat de votre recherche.
