Superior Huntingdon Composites LLC (Vanceburg, Ky., U.S.) delivers high- performance, U.S.-made glass veils and reinforcing materials globally certified for their environmental impact. One hundred percent of Vanceburg A Glass veils and reinforcing mats are certified 88% minimum recycled content by weight by SCS Global — a certification that the company says is not common for continuous glass nonwoven manufacturers.
All of Superior’s materials are engineered for advanced manufacturing applications — including pultrusion, compression molding, resin transfer molding (RTM), continuous lamination and vacuum infusion processes. The company’s glass veils (starting at 20 g/m²) and glass reinforcing mats (225-900 g/m²) offer high strength, stiffness, durability, cosmetic surface finish and processing ease. They also feature optimal surface aesthetics, corrosion resistance, drapeability and enhanced bonding. Reinforcing mats offer high structural integrity and improved processing ease. The company’s recycled veils and reinforcement mats are used across automotive, aerospace, construction, energy and marine market segments.
Superior Huntingdon Composites’ recycled continuous glass nonwoven manufacturing processes ensure consistent, high-quality results while reducing environmental impact — from pultruded profiles to complex molded parts.
