In April, Heatcon Composite Systems (Seattle, Wash., U.S.) announced an expanded relationship with Hexcel Corp. (Stamford, Conn., U.S.) for the North American distribution of Hexcel carbon fiber prepreg fabrics and tapes to support the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and advanced air mobility (AAM) industry.

Heatcon, a global manufacturer and supplier of aerospace composite repair equipment and products as well as an official Hexcel distributor, supplies materials such as fiberglass, carbon, peel ply and bagging film to aerospace companies and military providers. The Hexcel partnership focuses on a variety of carbon fiber prepreg products used during the manufacturing and repair process of UAVs and AAMs. According to Heatcon, this partnership will enable Hexcel to increase its presence in the commercial aerospace, space and defense markets.
