Bcomp Ltd.
Bcomp is a Swiss cleantech company and ESG-enabler that develops and sells sustainable lightweighting solutions. Its proprietary natural fibre-based reinforcement technologies ampliTex and powerRibs reduce environmental impact in a wide range of high-performance applications, from automotive interiors to the highest levels of motorsports, from luxury yachting to sports, infrastructure, aerospace and even space. The Bcomp team offers its customers cutting-edge engineering support from idea to final part, out of its Fribourg headquarter.
Products
ampliTex - The ampliTex range of technical fabrics includes different weaves - bi-axial, twills and UDs, optimised for lightweight reinforcement. Thanks to excellent mechanical properties and low environmental impact, the ampliTex range is extremely versatile. In addition to high specific stiffness, it provides excellent vibration damping, high radio transparency and beautiful design options, making ampliTex perfect for applications from sports to automotive, aerospace and marine. Available as dry fibre or prepreg.
powerRibs - Inspired by leaf veins, the proprietary powerRibs reinforcement grid enables natural fibre parts to match the performance in stiffness and weight of carbon fibre parts. The powerRibs adds maximal stiffness at minimal weight by creating a 3D structure on one side of a thin-walled shell element. This enables using less base material, decreasing weight and cost. Furthermore, consumables in production such as bleeder and breather can be eliminated, thus further reducing environmental impact and cost.
Both ampliTex and powerRibs are made from natural flax fibres.
