At the Hannover Messe the company from Fribourg will show its power ribs, a novel structural flax fibre composite material. In addition the start-up will present a new approach in composites processing which allows Bcomp to produce natural fibre composite parts with a high-quality surface finish in cycle times of seconds instead of minutes.

A month passed since Bcomp successfully presented its core technology in Paris during JEC 2012, where the start-up launched its new bCores D200. With this perfect marriage between BANOVA plywood and flax, Bcomp developed another lightweight product with high shear strength, high impact resistance and robust process properties. Typical applications are Skis, Snowboards, Surf and Kite Boards

Bcomp will present its second patented technology – the power ribs –at the Hannover Messe next week. This Natural Fibre Technology reached the TOP 20 of the Hermes Award, the internationaltechnology award at Hannover Messe 2012. The power ribs are a novel structural flax fibre composite material which has much higher flexural stiffness and strength combined to better damping compared to traditional materials. There are numerous applications for this material in industries such as sports and leisure, automotive and transportation.

Bcomp will also present a radically new approach in composites processing, combining the novel and patented Compon technology by Componia AG with itsampliTex® power ribs that gave birth to the mutually owned smart-cycle. This allows Bcomp to produce natural fibre composite parts with a high-quality surface finish in cycle times of seconds instead of minutes.
