Learn About Composite Material Solutions LLC
Our Mission
Composite Material Solutions provides expertise in composite materials and processing for a wide range of applications including aerospace, defense, energy, ground transport and sporting goods.
Collaborative Approach
We engage with customers at all stages of the process although it is more productive for us to become involved early in the decision making. The material and process selection is based on identifying the optimum balance of Design, Performance, Manufacturing and Cost for a given application. With our broad experience, we navigate through the range of composite material and process options to recommend the optimum solution for the end-user. Through our extensive contacts we can identify partners to support development, evaluation and production to ensure a successful outcome. This enables our clients to reduce cost, time and risk.
