This first distribution partnership in Europe for the thermoplastic composite business of Covestro is a response to the growing demand for materials that are designed for lightweight construction yet as robust as metal.
Lisa Ketelsen, head of the thermoplastic composites business of Covestro says:“We’re super excited to introduce Büfa as part of our distribution network around the globe. In the future we want to nurture our mutual exchanges on market trends and customer needs in order to find the best possible solutions for our customers.”
Dirk Punke, Managing Director of Büfa Thermoplastic Composites says:“We’re thrilled to add Maezio into our product portfolio. The tapes can be made particularly thin, but have a high stability and are especially light at the same time, which enables the production of complex and three-dimensional components in a wide range of industries.”
Maezio UD tapes are based on a thermoplastic matrix such as polycarbonate, which is strengthened with strands of continuous, oriented carbon or glass fibers. The UD tapes can be laminated together at different angles to form sheets that can be tuned to specific performance targets.
based in Oldenburg, Germany, Büfa Thermoplastic Composites is a spin-off of the Büfa Group and was founded in 2018. It specializes in the sale of raw materials and semi-finished products for the manufacture of components from long and continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastics.（来源：Covestro）
