Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion
OUR RESIN INFUSION PROCESS PRODUCES STRONG, LIGHTWEIGHT PARTS AND PROVIDES AN IMPROVED WORKING ENVIRONMENT

The basic idea is simple: lay the reinforcements materials up dry, compact them under vacuum, and then use the vacuum to pull the resin in from outside the bag (or mold) which subsequently progresses through the dry layup

■ NO HEALTH NUISANCE ■ EMISSIONS REDUCED TO ALMOST NOTHING

 We use Epoxy instead of Polyester or Vinylester resins - The Styrene will cause a nuisance and epoxy resins are far superior
■ HYGIENE & HEALTH - Low / no Styrene vapors
■ CONSTRAINT - Workshop temperature and hygrometry

BUILDING ENVIRONMENT

this is a technology forthe production of high-quality, composite parts. This technique uses one atmosphere of vacuum pressure to drive resin into a laminate. The reinforcement materials are laid dry and the vacuum is applied before resin is introduced. Once a complete vacuum is achieved, resin is literally sucked into the laminate via carefully placed tubing.

INCONSISTENCIES

Vacuum resin Infusion eliminates the inconsistencies of hand lay-up that's heavily dependent on laminator's skill and it completely does away with air entrapment and void problems that can compromisedurability. There are no voids that can fill with water or paths forpotential water migration through the core.

RESIN-TO-GLASS RATIO

The process creates the highest resin-to-glass ratio in yacht construction.This is the result of a 1/3 resin to 2/3 glass fiber ratio rather than the 2/3 resin to 1/3 glass fiber used in other builder's processes. Higher glass fiber content results in greater strength to weight ratio and a lighter, yet stronger composite laminate.
