Prepreg

PRF manufacture and supply a comprehensive range of prepreg materials in woven carbon fibre, glass fibre, aramid fibre, hybrids, unidirectional carbon and glass fibres, as well as prepregs with carbon nanotube additives. The resin content of each layup, epoxy or phenolic, can be manufactured to suit your unique requirements.

The advantages of using prepreg materials are numerous: the control of fibre and resin ratios, highly controlled tack and drape, the ability to control resin flow during the cure process but retaining the options of low or high temperature cure. Prepreg materials also provide reliability and ease of handling. These benefits make prepreg a versatile and highly attractive choice for sports components, aircraft interiors and car interiors, where very high standards of finish are required.

We offer a flexible and responsive prepreg service; we manufacture a number of lines and can tailor systems to individual customer needs, including using speciality materials such as Dyneema®. We also stock large quantities of prepreg in our purpose-built 360m³ freezer, ready for rapid delivery. Providing a full service, we are able to cut a wide variety of prepreg on our CNC cutting machine; we accept two-dimensional CAD drawings via email and nest for optimum material usage. Kits are supplied in bags ready for use.
