Innovation in Thermoplastic Composites for High-Value Sectors

At Texfire, we actively participate in the COMPLAST project, a research and development initiative focused on creating new thermoplastic composites for high-value sectors such as aerospace, railway, and automotive. This project, co-funded by the European Union and the CDTI, aims to advance towards more sustainable materials, promoting circularity and reducing emissions throughout their lifecycle.

Texfire’s role in the project is led by the Blackfabric department, specialized in textile solutions for the composites sector. Texfire’s main goal is to develop technical fabrics tailored to the specific needs of each sector, meeting the required technical specifications in each case.

One of the primary focuses is integrating recycled carbon fibers, manufacturing fabrics with high deformability, and incorporating advanced properties such as fire resistance. These developments aim to enhance both the safety and performance of thermoplastic composites in demanding applications.

The COMPLAST project not only reinforces our commitment to technological innovation but also positions us as a key player in the transition towards more sustainable and efficient materials for strategic sectors.

It is an extensive project developed in collaboration with a consortium of several leading Spanish companies in their respective fields. Each member contributes specialized knowledge and unique technological capabilities, enabling complex challenges to be addressed with a multidisciplinary approach. This joint effort seeks to position Spain as a European benchmark in the development of advanced and sustainable materials for strategic sectors.

The COMPLAST project not only marks a milestone in the research of advanced materials but also reinforces our vision to lead the shift towards a more sustainable and technologically advanced industry, positioning Texfire and the consortium as European leaders in innovation in this field.
