Report summary
Saertex, a technical textiles manufacturer headquartered in Saerbeck, Germany, commands a leading position in the global market for fibre reinforced composite materials. The company manufactures non-crimp fabrics (NCFs) for producing composite preforms, structural core materials for composite components, flow media for composite fabrication processes, and adhesives for composite bonding. Also, it manufactures ultraviolet (UV) cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technologies for the maintenance of major pipelines, and high-performance flame resistant (FR) composite materials for applications where fire safety is critical.
Looking ahead, the prospects for Saertex look promising as the use of fibre reinforced composite materials becomes more widespread. In particular, the company can look forward to strong demand for composite materials in the wind energy industry as major global economies continue to transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. In order to exploit this opportunity, the company is making significant investments in the development and production of composite components for wind turbine applications, and it is specialising in the manufacture of pultruded composite planks and structural core materials for wind turbine rotor blades.
In the automotive and mobility industries, Saertex is poised to benefit from an acceleration of the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) which will drive demand for fibre reinforced composite materials that are able to improve the range, performance and lifespan of EVs. In the aerospace industry, opportunities for Saertex will stem from demand for composite materials which show potential for lightweighting and, at the same time, possess excellent mechanical strength. In the civil engineering industry, Saertex is well positioned to take advantage of growing demand for technologies which facilitate the trenchless rehabilitation of underground pipelines needed as a result of urbanisation.
