Greene Tweed (Kulpsville, Pa., U.S.) is showcasing its aerospace material expertise, with a focus on how high-performance composites contribute to lighter, durable and production-ready aircraft designs. Attendees can learn how Greene Tweed solutions help address key industry challenges, including reducing weight in critical components and supporting the development of next-generation aircraft.

The highlight of Greene Tweed’s exhibit are the company’s  Discontinuous Long Fiber (DLF) composites, a material solution designed to replace metal parts in complex structural applications. Xycomp meets the stringent qualification standards of major OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, with more than 400,000 components in service across commercial and defense applications. This technology offers weight reductions of 35-50% compared to metals while maintaining strength, thermal stability and chemical resistance. Using near-net, compression molded shapes, it can replace complex multipiece metal assemblies with a single molded component. The result is less waste, greater efficiency and consistent, high-performance.

As the advanced air mobility (AAM) market develops, Greene Tweed is leveraging its aerospace experience to help shape this new generation of aircraft. With eVTOLs and electrified aircraft transitioning from prototypes to viable fleets, lightweight materials will be critical to balancing performance, safety and sustainability. Greene Tweed is working alongside innovators in this market to ensure composite solutions like DLF meet the demands of new flight technologies, balancing energy efficiency with the ability to manufacture at scale.

Visitors can learn about the company’s latest composite technologies and engage directly with the technical experts.
