We had a fantastic time at Advanced Engineering UK last week, speaking about our design and advanced robotics capabilities developed on the ASCEND project, and about our folded fibre-reinforced chassis design for which we won a Composites UK award last year. We are very grateful also to have won a Composites UK - Trade Association Net-Zero Initiative award with the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK-funded SOCA project consortium for sustainable design for the automotive industry! Please get in touch if you want to know more: office@far-uk.com

I'm excited to be speaking at Advanced Engineering tomorrow on our design processes at Far-UK Ltd. Come to the Composites Forum from 2-3pm to hear more about what the ATI- funded ASCEND project has enabled us to do at Far (my slot is at 2:50pm)! You can register for free via the link below, and please get in touch if you want to meet during the day at the show! https://lnkd.in/eEvZSYnE

PlastikCity will be exhibiting at the Thermoplastic Composites Seminar 2024, hosted by Composites UK - Trade Association and the British Plastics Federation on 7th November at Aston University, Birmingham. This year’s theme, “Making a Vital Contribution Towards Circularity and Net-Zero Goals,” underscores the critical role thermoplastic composites play in advancing decarbonisation and circularity across industries. This impactful seminar will feature sessions led by industry experts on topics such as: 🍃 New composite materials and products with speakers from Far-UK Ltd, Composite Braiding Ltd, and Hive Composites Ltd. 🍃 Processing of thermoplastic composites featuring insights from the AMRC and ENGEL. 🍃 Managing composites at end-of-life with discussions on recycling hybrid parts and the DEECOM upcycling process. Jess and Will from our team will be there at our table-top exhibit, ready to connect on how PlastikCity supports sustainable solutions in plastics and composites. Join us as we explore pathways to a circular, net-zero future!

🎉 We were thrilled that GKN Aerospace-led ASCEND was awarded the Team Award for Successful Collaboration and Partnership at the Aerospace Technology Institute Conference 2024: Destination Zero, yesterday! 💫 The award was presented to the team for their groundbreaking progress in composite technology and supply chain development. The ASCEND programme has pushed innovation that will shape the future of high-rate production for civil aircraft as well as in the automotive industry and future mobility markets. 👩💻 The innovative technology ASCEND works on includes automating dry fibre deposition for broad goods materials, reducing manual intervention in forming complex internal spars, developing a smart RTM cell with closed-loop feedback and intelligent tooling for aerospace wingtip production as well as establishing a scalable manufacturing process for Type V composite hydrogen fuel tanks. 🛩️ ASCEND is led by GKN Aerospace and includes 15 project partners: Airborne, Assyst Bulmer, Cygnet Texkimp, Cytec Syensqo, DES Composites Ltd, Far-UK Ltd, Hexcel Corporation, Hive Composites Ltd, LMAT, Loop Technology, McLaren Automotive Ltd, National Composites Centre, Rafinex & Sigmatex, with collaboration managed by Axillium Research. #Aerospace #ASCEND #ATI #Sustainability #Automation #UKAerospace #DestinationZero #ATIConference

🌍 Proud to share our contribution to the SOCA project at CENEX 2024! 🚗💡 At CENEX 2024, we were proud to see Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) exhibit materials provided by BLACKFABRIC as part of the SOCA project, in collaboration with Far-UK, iCOMAT, and CCP-Gransden. Our material was selected as an innovative low CO2 solution for the decarbonisation of CFRP automotive components, contributing to the goal of reducing the environmental impact of automotive manufacturing. #CENEX2024 #Sustainability #Decarbonization #Automotive #Blackfabric #SOCAProject

We are very excited to announce that we have been shortlisted for the Composites UK Net-Zero Initiative award, alongside Jaguar Land Rover and the SOCA consortium!   #composites #sustainability #engineering
