Aeronautic: The Carbon Fiber Revolution
Thanks to its mechanical performance and its lightness, carbon fiber has revolutionised all aircraft structures. As a result, an aircraft’s energy consumption and carbon footprint have dropped. These are now vital issues for aeronautical manufacturers and air transport operators.
Toray Carbon Fibers Europe obtained its first aeronautical certifications for its Torayca® Carbon Fibers in 1987, two years after the plant began production. Building on this expertise, we have expanded the range of Torayca® carbon fibers produced in our plant in France to offer today the world’s widest choice of high-strength, intermediate and high-modulus fibers.
Customers benefit from our fully-integrated value chain approach ensuring consistent and timely supply. Toray Carbon Fibers Europe can also rely on other Toray Industries production sites worldwide, guaranteeing a multi-sourced supply to prevent the risk of disruption.
