#190 PRF Showcases High-Volume Composite Manufacturing at the NEC Birmingham

PRF Composite Materials Showcases their vision of High-Volume Composite ManufacturingAt the recent Composites Networking Lounge and Demo Zone during Advanced Engineering 2025 at the The NEC, Birmingham, PRF demonstrated why they are at the forefront of industrial composite innovation.The highlight?Vincent Fawcett, Sales Director explains in this interview press moulding with ultra-fast cure cycles. PRF showcased live demonstrations of their RP570 prepreg systems achieving a 4-minute cure at 140°C—a benchmark for high-volume composite manufacturing. This rapid curing capability is not just a technical feat; it’s a game-changer for sectors like automotive, aerospace, marine, and medical, where throughput and cost-efficiency are critical.PRF’s engineering vision revolves around:High-volume production enabled by advanced prepreg systems.Sustainability integration, incorporating recycled materials into resin systems.Operational efficiency through kitting services—delivering ready-to-use kits to eliminate material handling complexity. Compliance and performance, with certifications for fire resistance in demanding applications.This approach reduces energy consumption per part, optimizes cycle times, and supports OEMs in scaling composite adoption for structural and semi-structural components.PRF’s commitment to the composites community extends beyond technology. As a headline sponsor of the International Composites Summit (ICS) on December 2–3, 2025 at The Drum Wembley-London, PRF continues to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange at the highest level.Call to Action:Meet PRF at ICS in Wembley/London and explore how their solutions can accelerate your production goals. And mark your calendars for JEC World 2026, where PRF will showcase the next evolution in composite manufacturing.YouTube Episode: https://youtu.be/VsACDo3hGdc
