QUADCARBON manufactures carbon fibre of the following types:

QCC15P: weight: 136 g/m2, thickness: 0.15 mm. This is a specialized material for structures and parts where the strength/weight ratio is a critical design factor.

QCC3P: weight: 300g/m2, thickness: 0,3 mm. Highly used in the manufacture of parts due to its easy-handling and stability.

QCC35UD: weight: 200g/m2, thickness: 0.35 mm. An unidirectional fabric that guarantees an efficient design.

QCC3T22: weight: 300 g/m2, thickness: 0.3 mm. Twill fabric is a material that is perfectly adaptable to all corners and edges, providing high resistance where needed.

QUADCARBON manufactures Kevlar® fabric of the following types:

QCK37P: weight: 267 g/m2. This type of Kevlar® fabric is mostly used in the manufacture of parts due to its easy-handling and stability.

QCK2P: weight: 209 g/m2. When protection combined with low weight is required, this high density Kevlar® is the most appropriate.

QCK25P: weight: 185 g/m2. This Kevlar® woven fabric is the lightest of all types, due to its low density.

QCK4P: weight: 461 g/m2. This heavy-duty Kevlar® is extensively used in the production of bulletproof vests.

QUADCARBON manufactures fibreglass and special fibres of the following types:
Fiberglass:

QCMAT 600: MAT fibreglass that weighs 600 grams per square meter, ideal for rugged work.

QCGV24P-C: fibreglass fabric that weighs 260 grams per square meter.

QCGV15P: the lightest commercial fibreglass, that weighs 180 grams per square meter.

Special Fibres:

QCCK3P: this fibre combines the extraordinary properties of Kevlar® with the low weight and the high strength of carbon fibres.

Thanks to its strategic alliances, QUADCARBON S.A.S. distributes the most advanced reinforced carbon to the most recognized aerospace companies, such as Boeing, Sikorsky, Gulfstream, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, Airbus, Embraer and Aerospatiale, among others.
