Spread Tow Fabrics

Overview

The sigmaST range of spread tow fabrics are very thin, ultra-lightweight, have near zero crimp and fewer interlacing points. As well as being aesthetically pleasing, this technology has improved mechanical performance at a reduced thickness and cost when compared to standard 2D fabrics using 1k fibers.

Typical applications range from high-performance sporting goods, motorsport and automotive structures, through to space rockets and UAVs
