Powering ahead with advanced composite products

William Barker of Trelleborg Applied Technologies, a world leading supplier in polyurethane, glass microspheres, epoxy tooling and engineered rubber solutions, will be presenting in the ‘Industry Spotlight’ stream on Tuesday 30 March.

The company’s ‘Advances in Polyurethane Composites’ paper provides an overview of the advantages that advanced polyurethane composites can deliver to modern quarrying operations.

The latest polyurethane systems not only reduce the environmental impact of production processes but also outperform their rubber material counterparts.

Advanced composite products deliver consistent performance over a longer operating period, thereby reducing unplanned downtime, loss of production and associated waste costs for the operator. Polyurethane composites are also environmentally friendly, as they can be manufactured from renewable/recycled pre-cursers.
