While maintaining separate identities, upon either soluble or mechanical joining, the integrated materials in effect form a single construction. Essentially, FRP/GRP is employed for its durability and Thermoplastics for their extraordinary impermeability. Application Dual Laminate construction cost effectively extends the practical performance range of FRP/GRP while outperforming numerous metal alloys. Enhanced physical properties including chemical, thermal and abrasion resistance continue to drive the use of Dual Laminate as the material of choice for demanding and critical service environments, most notably, corrosion mitigation. Dual Laminate is proven unequalled in high-purity liquid and gas processes. Compared to alternative materials of construction including hybrids, the benefits of dual laminate construction include: Initial Cost Strength Weight Versatility Life Extension Maintenance Cost Superior Corrosion Resistance Attributes Homogeneous Service Face Material Invariability Service Face Smoothness Low Coefficients of Thermal Expansion & Friction Design Freedom in both Round and Flat Geometries Corrosion Resistance Throughout When it must be optimally corrosion resistant, intrinsically pure, lightweight, strong and everlasting, it must be Dual Laminate superbly crafted by Composites USA. Valuable Experience, Contemporary Processes As an internationally acclaimed authority drawing upon experience extending to a fourth decade, Composites USA is uniquely qualified in the design, manufacture and construction of Dual Laminate process equipment and structures. Utilizing applied pressure, thermo and vacuum forming processes, Thermoplastic materials are infinitely shaped to accommodate the most complex design configurations. FRP/GRP laminates are produced under hand lay-up, filament winding and numerous vacuum forming processes.

Tests were run at ambient temperatures. FRP values are for a typical glass/vinyl ester Type II laminate. The Process Once design and subsequent submittals approvals are met, projects are then assigned to the production facility best equipped for the unique manufacturing requirements of each. Specialized forming and tooling capabilities, material application systems and logistics each share vital roles in such assignment. Well tenured, highly qualified craftspeople consistently supported by the industry s most technically advanced auto and manual thermosetting and thermoplastic forming and welding equipment then bring to bear their considerable expertise in rendering a product which can best be described as a critically rendered art form. Product Integrity Composites USA s highly respected position in both the global marketplace and industry is dependent upon our perpetual commitment and devotion to consistent delivery of products, systems and construction which define excellence.
