(Hjørring, Denmark) is promoting its extruded thermoplastic resin flow meshes and infusion technical expertise. The 100% recyclable range of Expo-Net flow mesh products includes grades developed through new product development technical collaborations with OEMs specializing in large, complex composite components and structures. Standard and custom-made products are supplied to customers worldwide, directly and via approved supply chain distributors and kitting partners.
Expo-Net highlights its highly technical, problem-solving expertise, able to provide solutions to composites manufacturers that are able to improve infusion molding productivity and product quality. The company’s team of engineers and production experts evaluate the best type and design of flow mesh needed in a specific area of a mold to improve resin flow speed, eliminate air voids and avoid premature resin hardening in the final infused part. To achieve these benefits, up to four different resin flow mesh grades are typically specified for larger, more complex composite parts.
Expo-Net’s resin infusion technologies are globally recognized in markets such as wind energy and marine in which the company has been serving for more than 25 years.
JEC visitors can find out more about how Expo-Net assists customers, technical product information, the company’s strategic business investments made in 2024 and its plans for 2025 to expand production, improve customer service and become even more sustainable. Key capital expenditures to the production site in Hjørring, Denmark, include a new 3,300-square-meter “low carbon” warehouse with robot-assisted materials handling facilities constructed in 2024 and now fully operational. Further capital investments for 2025 include two new extrusion lines, plus further warehousing, all due for completion by the end of the year.
