Custom Composites, part of the Attwater Group, has launched a new range of products for the international marine sector, including masts, tiller extensions and safety rails. “Although our carbon fibre tubes have been used in steering equipment by many of the 'top end' international and club dinghy racers for years now, we’re often asked to make high performance ultra-light specials,” said operations manager James Saunders. Its glass fibre and carbon fibre tubes have also been used as F1 refuelling booms and in competition gymnastic equipment. “Developments in technology within the last decade mean that customers are requesting more and more products made from carbon fibre as it’s lightweight, durable and aesthetically pleasing,” added Saunders. “Custom Composites has the technology to visualise, design and manufacture 3D structures in carbon and glass fibre, which makes a tangible difference to the performance and longevity of the final product.” www.customcom.co.uk
