Benefits of Composites

The rapidly growing acceptance of Composites as one of the "New Age" materials is based on its outstanding integral qualities which include:

  • Exceptional chemical and corrosion resistance – Composites offers superior resistance to acid, salt, alkali and electrochemical environment
  • Superior strength to weight ratio compared to steel or aluminium
  • Lightweight and manageable - Composites has a specific gravity one quarter that of steel and two thirds that of aluminium
  • Non-conductive - excellent electrical and thermal insulation
  • Excellent cost performance - low installation costs, long service life and minimal maintenance all combine to provide cost effective solutions
  • Transparent to radiofrequency transmission
  • Excellent creep and fatigue performance
