The "TowOptimisedWeight" product group of SAERTEX

These innovative constructions were first presented to the expert public in spring 2005 on the occasion of the Paris “JEC COMPOSITES SHOW” trade-fair. With this new generation of multiaxial carbon fabrics, SAERTEX has further reinforced its leading position in the sector of technical textiles. SAERtow® offers developers and producers the option of designing high-quality light-weight items.

Thanks to the special SAERTEX production procedures, layer weights of 75 g/m² using HT-fibres and 100 g/m² using IM-fibres can be smoothly produced even with the application of ≥ 24K heavy tow fibres. This way, for example, end products which optimally combine functional top performance with drapability can be manufactured for the automotive or the aerospace sector.
