AGY and SAERTEX to Develop Advanced S-2 Glass Non-Crimp Fabrics for High-Performance Composite Applications

AGY, a global leader in specialty glass fiber reinforcements, and SAERTEX, the world’s leading manufacturer of multiaxial non-crimp fabrics (NCF), apprised of a joint development focused on the use of AGY’s high-strength S-2 Glass fiber in SAERTEX engineered non-crimp fabric architectures. This collaboration combines AGY’s next-generation S-2 Glass reinforcement with SAERTEX’s tailored multiaxial NCF technology to deliver lightweight, high-strength composite solutions for aerospace, defense, industrial, and advanced mobility applications. SAERTEX non-crimp fabrics are designed with precisely aligned fiber orientations and optimized surface weights to maximize load performance while reducing component weight and layer count, enabling improved mechanical efficiency and lower manufacturing cost. By integrating AGY’s S-2 Glass fiber, known for its exceptional tensile strength, impact resistance, and fatigue performance, the companies are developing reinforcement systems that provide: • Higher specific strength and stiffness for weight-critical structures • Improved impact and damage tolerance compared to conventional glass systems • Optimized multiaxial load paths through tailored NCF architectures • Compatibility with infusion, RTM, prepreg, compression, and pultrusion processes To identify growth opportunities in Fiberglass Fabric Market Report: Trends, Forecast and Competitive Analysis to 2031, please visit https://www.lucintel.com/fiberglass-fabric-market.aspx
