Information

Our comprehensive portal contains indispensable information for composites professionals, including a calendar, glossary, essential links and a comprehensive guide to composite materials. We also show information on composites courses, as well as full listings of job opportunities in the composites industry, essential for job seekers and employers alike.

However, the site is far from static and we are constantly developing new areas of information for to further support the industry. We recently introduced a Beta version of our industry directory which we are further developing throughout 2005. Were also working hard to develop brand new information sources, including:

Compass: A Simplified Guide to Assessing Environmental, Social & Economic Performance for the Composites Industry
The overall aim of this project is to create simple paper and web-based guides that can be used by composite composites companies to understand and determine the ecological impacts of the decisions they make about materials, processes and products.

Agent-Based Engineering in a Cost-Estimation Model for Composites (E-Composites):
The aim of this project is to create a web based tool to assist composite manufacturers, designers and engineers in developing new products, by optimizing processes, equipment and material selection, in order to devise cost estimation models.

We also regularly search for technical and commercial information on composites in more than 2000 journals, representing over 30 languages, to allow our clients to thoroughly research a particular subject, or to keep them up-to date weekly, monthly or quarterly.
