Transport

With over 60 years experience in supplying composites to the aerospace industry it was a natural progression for Hexcel to apply its knowledge and expertise to other transport industries.

For automotive, marine, rail and new e-vehicles composites are strategic materials that bring advantages from the conceptual design stage through to the processing and manufacture of the parts.

The main benefits from using composites in transport applications are enhanced safety, a more aerodynamic design, weight-savings, operating efficiencies and greater strength.

Hexcel is a provider of solutions for transport, based on a vast experience in composites for aerospace and core competencies in the development and integration of composites, replacing metals from an optimized range of prepregs and honeycomb products.

Composites give designers the freedom to bring to life the new transport designs of the future.
