Australian Composite Panels
produce lightweight cored panels laminated with Epoxy resin impregnated fibreglass, carbon fibre
and
Kevlar for use in the
marine, transport, construction, entertainment, leisure and sporting industries
where emphasis is on high strength, rigidity and where light weight is
fundamental. Other materials such as or aluminium, gelcoat, timber veneer or
marble can be fixed to one side of our composite panels during our manufacturing
process where weight is not critical but design features are.
A unique feature of our panels is that
they are structural and can eliminate the need for a complicated, heavy and time
consuming framework, or reduce it substantially. The cost savings can be
substantial.
Core options: The materials
available for the core are Polycore©, a Polypropylene honeycomb, aluminium honeycomb and a range of PVC and PET foams.
From our panels we offer DIY kits
for a 12 metre cruising catamaran, the Solitary Island 12, a 5.7 metre garvey styled
runabout, a 3.3 metre garvey dinghy and a Kit Camper to build using a box trailer as a base.
We also build tapered, round, free
standing carbon masts.
