2 25,000 total site visitors since launch About us Launched in September 2016, Inside Composites has got off to a flying start and is already regarded by many as a leading digital news and information resource for composites. We aim to be the number one choice for companies in all parts of the composites supply chain to reach engaged industry professionals, business owners and key decision makers. As publishers of the renowned news website Innovation in Textiles, which has been reporting on composites since 2009, we launched Inside Composites as a standalone news and information resource to both reflect and satisfy the demand for information on the rapid growth of this dynamic sector. Our extensive Innovation in Textiles composites archive has been re-homed on Inside Composites. With so many exciting recent developments in composites and with great things being predicted for the sector s future, we felt the timing was absolutely right to spinout our composites coverage into a new dedicated website - INSIDE COMPOSITES. Judging by the positive feedback we have been getting, Inside Composites is definitely serving a need in the industry, and we look forward to seeing its further growth. Billy Hunter Editor at Innovation in Textiles, Publisher INSIDE COMPOSITES There are few industries as fastmoving as the composites sector, nor indeed that are as multi-faceted and range across so many different disciplines. At Inside Composites, in addition to being first with the news, our aim is not only be to provide clarity, but also to explore the bigger implications and consequences of developments as they are occurring. We have already built this site into an invaluable one-stop reference shop for the composites industry and one that can also be finely-tuned and tailored to your individual needs. Adrian Wilson Editor at INSIDE COMPOSITES Our two successful textiles industry news websites (innovationintextiles. com and knittingindustry.com) provide continual return on investment for our growing family of global advertisers. We help them reach key decision makers in their industries and we are confident we can do the same for you in composites. I am looking forward to working with new and existing advertisers alike.
