For years, the aerospace industry has been regarded as a trendsetter for new technologies and innovations. Lightweight construction plays a special role here. As experts in the field of fiber reinforced composites production, we accompany you through the development process right from the first prototype all the way to serial production.

Our carbon fiber-reinforced plastic is the ideal material for lightweight construction in the aerospace industry:

Low intrinsic weight
High strength and stiffness
Excellent fatigue strength
High chemical resistance
Corrosion resistance

The demand for carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP) in the aerospace industry is greater than ever. As a customer, you can benefit from our wide range of materials and expertise across all processing stages from fibers to the final lightweight structure. By using CFRP in both primary and secondary structures, it is possible to save weight and at the same time achieve mechanical peak values in terms of strength and stiffness of the components. With innovative production technologies and years of experience in the manufacture of lightweight components, we offer tailor-made solutions for your requirements.

Automated fiber processing

As our customer, you will be able to develop various production concepts and produce prototypes here in close collaboration with us. Henceforth, we can implement large-scale production of the fiber-reinforced components for you.

To our Lightweight and Application Center

Our CFRP lightweight components are mainly used as primary and secondary structural components as well as interior components, for example

Payload fairing
Tanks
Bulkheads
Aircraft seat components
UAV structural components

SGL Carbon's SIGRACOMP components made of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP)

SIGRACOMP^® CFRP Components

In high-tech applications requiring high strength and stiffness combined with light weight, our carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) components are indispensable. The properties of CFRP materials bring to bear precisely when other materials reach their limits. CFRP is considerably lighter than aluminum or steel, while being extremely durable.

Our carbon fibers as well as our textile, pre-impregnated and thermoplastic fiber composites are ideal for producing stiff, strong and ultra-lightweight components for demanding high-tech applications.
