Real world examples of composites reuse and recycling

Just Own It. Accountability in Composites.

Our products touch everyone in one way or another.

For decades, manufacturers have risen to the challenge of making high-performance composites which are distributed, modified, and used for commercial, industrial, recreational, and residential applications. Across Aotearoa, thousands of fibreglass and carbon-fibre products are reaching the end of their first life e.g., boats, pools, canopies, panels, turbine blades, and tanks.We seek to lead the way in responsible recycling and reuse of these products because first, it’s the right thing to do.

Secondly, exceptional performance at the back door of the value chain keeps the front door wide open and unlocked.This national online forum is designed to connect all players from raw materials to retailers and policy makers. You’ll hear about real progress in reuse and recycling, explore international breakthroughs, and help shape what comes next for New Zealand’s composites industry.Register now to be part of NZ’s next innovation wave.https://forms.gle/4jEz9xJgc97KTip59
