Technology & Products
Key Products
Polyurethane (PU) tooling board materials, high-performance syntactic materials for automotive, aerospace, and foundry industries, and large-format 3D printing services for tooling.
Technological Advantage
VERIFIED: DNV type approval for buoyancy materials ensures regulatory compliance and trust in subsea applications. CLAIMED: ProXtrude® paste system enables large-format 3D printing for tooling. DEFENSIBLE: ISO certifications and proprietary assessment tools.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces tooling lead times and material waste through large-format 3D printing services, while providing certified high-performance syntactic materials that meet stringent industry standards (e.g., DNV type approval for buoyancy).
How They Differentiate
Offers integrated materials and 3D printing services specifically for large-format tooling, unlike pure material suppliers or 3D printing service bureaus. DNV-certified buoyancy materials provide regulatory moat in subsea applications.
