With a focus on inspiring composite innovation, we bring ideas to life by designing and manufacturing revolutionary products using composites.

Product Development

Developing your own product is a big endeavour. That’s why our team of composite experts can support you with the complete process from advising on detailed design to manufacture and more.

Our capabilities

Decades of composite experience supports the product development process by inspiring innovative designs whilst ensuring solutions are practical to make bringing your idea to life, realistic.

How does product development work?

You drive the product vision; we sign the NDAs to keep it top secret but, in the background, assist in bringing it to life in detailed design. Our experienced team has the knowledge and skills to make the product development and process seamless, safe and enjoyable.

Why is skilled development key?

To avoid costly production changes, your product idea must be robust. That’s why we only manufacture composite products or parts that have been detailed designed to support you to manufacture your product in a practical way.

The Process

At Composite Products we offer a complete service from product design advise, through to tooling and manufacture. Here are the main process stages and we’re happy to support you at one stage or several.

  • 1. Talk

  • Talk

    First, we get to know you, your product and your needs. Then, we suggest smart solutions to progress your product. Once we’re aligned, we confirm costs, timings and responsibilities whilst communication flows regularly. This collaborative approach ensures your composite tooling solution is aligned with both technical and commercial objectives.

  • 2. Design

  • Design

    Our experienced team has the knowledge and skills to assist and advise in bringing designs to manufacture. From ergonomic details to aesthetics, we support ideas to design ready for manufacture. We’ll continuously advise ways to get the very best results. Our composite tooling design advise ensures every tool is optimised for accuracy, repeatability, and ease of manufacture.
  • 3. Tool

  • Tool

    With detailed design information in hand, your bespoke tool can be made from a material of your choosing (we can recommend) to support all future production runs, to act as a template to ensure the time, love and energy put into the product so far is maintained. This includes high-performance carbon fibre tools and carbon tooling solutions developed to meet demanding tolerance and surface finish requirements.

  • 4. Components

  • Components

    If you need support on part component manufacturing you need to know your trusted partner will deliver to spec, time and cost. Our diverse experience means we can support and advise you on the best mould process to get you from A to B on time and on budget. Our composites tooling expertise allows us to recommend the most efficient moulding techniques for your application.

  • 5. Make

  • Make

    This process involves several stages from kit cutting to laminating, autoclave curing, followed by hand trimming, fitting, assembly & important quality inspection. Fully traceable throughout the process you can have a top-level view of everything. Our tooling supports high-quality manufacturing across a range of sectors, including aerospace composite tooling & other performance-critical industries.

  • 6. Supply

  • Supply

    Confident that your product meets your brief, you’re ready to construct your complete product or go straight to market. We don’t like to say goodbye at this stage but instead, see you soon as we believe in long-term partnerships. Many clients return to us as their preferred composite tooling partner for future programmes.
