The situation in the industry

What it is about right now

Automotive is dropping out as a volume driver, while aerospace and defence are picking up. There, rates, qualification and documentation count. Anyone moving from prototype to stable series production runs into the classic bottlenecks of the industry: autoclave loading, manual lay-up, scrap that only becomes visible after curing, and prepregs with limited shelf life.

As of 2025: GRP production in Europe fell by 3 %, and Germany remains the largest single country for thermosets. Source: AVK market report

Industrialisation and series readiness
Document processes that currently depend on individual people.
Autoclave as bottleneck
Loading and batching determine throughput.
Scrap and rework
Avoid porosity, delamination and fibre waviness early instead of finding them after curing.
Material and cold chain
Track out-time without gaps so that no prepreg has to be scrapped.
