Infinite Composites achieves multi-domain flight heritage

 Infinite Composites (IC) reported the successful use of its proprietary Infinite Composite Pressure Vessel (iCPV) technology on 2 operational satellites currently in orbit. This represents the 1st recorded deployment of IC’s linerless type 5 composite pressure vessel in an operational satellite. The tanks have now travelled over 20 million kilometers in orbit.

The successful validation of iCPVs in the demanding orbital environment showcases the reliability and performance capabilities of the technology, establishing new benchmarks for pressure vessel technology in space applications.

“This achievement represents a significant advancement in pressure vessel technology for space exploration,” said Matt Villarreal, CEO at Infinite Composites. “Our innovative linerless type 5 composite pressure vessels deliver superior performance and reliability, enabling more efficient and cost-effective space operations.”

Expanding application range

This space flight experience follows a series of technical developments by IC in 2024. The company demonstrated the versatility of its pressure vessel technology through successful integration and flight on a hypersonic aircraft operating near Mach 5. IC also tested its hydrogen storage capabilities in a technology demonstration on a military aircraft, illustrating the range of potential applications for its engineered composite solutions.

These accomplishments reinforce IC’s position as an industry leader in advanced composite pressure vessel technology, delivering innovative solutions across space, aviation and defence sectors.
