About Fibrecoat:

FibreCoat is a world leader in advanced materials technology. Its lightweight, high-performance, cost-effective materials are electrically conductive and protect against radiation, heat, and electromagnetic interference (E.M.I.), essential for space, defense, automotive, and construction. In aerospace, they enable satellites and spacecraft to operate safely under extreme conditions while reducing launch costs. In defense, metal-coated fibers enhance durability, provide EMI and EMP shielding and reduce weight. In automotive, they manage heat, protect electronics, and reduce weight. In construction, they provide structural reinforcement and EMI shielding. FibreCoat’s process uses 90% less energy and deployable modular production lines ensure global supply chain resilience.
