In August 2018, Covestro introduced a continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite material under the brand name Maezio, a material that is superior to metal in terms of light weight and flexibility. This material consists of carbon or glass fibers containing polycarbonate (PC), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), or other thermoplastic resins.
These innovative materials can effectively improve the protection of resources and energy efficiency worldwide. From the mobile electronics industry to the consumer and medical products industry, OEMs and component suppliers can benefit from advanced composite materials.
