#190 PRF Showcases High-Volume Composite Manufacturing at the NEC Birmingham

PRF Composite Materials Showcases their vision
of High-Volume Composite Manufacturing

At the recent Composites Networking Lounge and Demo Zone during
Advanced Engineering 2025 at the The NEC,
Birmingham, PRF demonstrated why they are at the
forefront of industrial composite innovation.

The highlight?
Vincent Fawcett, Sales Director explains in this
interview press moulding with ultra-fast cure cycles. PRF
showcased live demonstrations of their RP570 prepreg systems
achieving a 4-minute cure at 140°C—a benchmark for high-volume
composite manufacturing. This rapid curing capability is not just
a technical feat; it’s a game-changer for sectors like
automotive, aerospace, marine, and medical, where throughput and
cost-efficiency are critical.

PRF’s engineering vision revolves
around:
High-volume production enabled by advanced prepreg systems.
Sustainability integration, incorporating recycled materials into
resin systems.
Operational efficiency through kitting services—delivering
ready-to-use kits to eliminate material handling complexity.
Compliance and performance, with certifications for fire
resistance in demanding applications.

This approach reduces energy consumption per part, optimizes
cycle times, and supports OEMs in scaling composite adoption for
structural and semi-structural components.

PRF’s commitment to the composites community extends beyond
technology. As a headline sponsor of the International
Composites Summit (ICS) on December 2–3, 2025 at
The Drum Wembley-London, PRF continues to foster
collaboration and knowledge exchange at the highest level.

Call to Action:
Meet PRF at ICS in Wembley/London and explore how their solutions
can accelerate your production goals. And mark your calendars for
JEC World 2026, where PRF will showcase the next evolution in
composite manufacturing.
