Rockwood Composites

Built on a long history of composite manufacturing achievements, Rockwood Composites provide cost effective solutions to technically demanding problems, for a wide range of sectors.

We undertake bladder and compression moulded of pre-preg materials in hard tooling, using heated platen presses or use dedicated “standalone” tools. No autoclaves are used.

Our approach is starts with a thorough review of customer requirements, including component design, materials, tooling strategy, production rate and costs.

The diversity of experience gives us a unique insight into customer requirements and composite design and manufacturing options.

What differentiates Rockwood Composites:

• Our broad based in-house design and engineering capability to provide innovative products and product manufacturing solutions.
• Cost effective manufacturing process and expertise that are not frequently found in the UK composites industry.
• Short lead times from concept to hardware, through in-house design, tool manufacture and development.
• Rapid problem solving and customer support backed by ISO 9000 manufacturing systems.

We are happy to discuss and support design engineers in the selection of appropriate component materials, tooling and production systems.

"Design for Manufacture" is key in minimising tooling cost, maximising quality and reducing component cost and lead time.v
