Chopping roving

We offer a range of assembled roving with high strand integrity and a silane-coupling agent. Our chopping roving is compatible with unsaturated polyester resins.

Combination products

Ahlstrom combination products combine both woven fabrics and chopped strand mat layer into one. They are typically used as structural layers of the laminates or as primary structure of large hand lay-up vessels.

Direct roving

Our direct roving is specially designed for continuous processes. The unique performance of the roving makes it suitable for laminates and profiles as well as for weaving and knitting.

Infusion and RTM products

Our Infusion and Resin Transfer Method (RTM) products provide a special reinforcement for your infusion and closed mold processes. Their high wetting capacity can increase your productivity and lower the costs of production.

Multiaxial products

Ahlstrom multiaxials are specialty reinforcements suited for a wide range of production processes: infusion and other closed mold techniques, hand lay-up, filament winding and pultrusion.

Volumized roving

Our volumized roving is designed for pultrusion where its open structure provides mechanical strength also orthogonal to the strand direction.

Woven products

Our woven products can be modified to meet the customer specific requirements. They are commonly used with chopped strand mats as structural layers of the laminates or as primary structure of large hand lay-up vessels.
