Gen 2 Carbon

First series of trials on our pilot continuous pyrolysis furnace for carbon fibre recycling completed. Over the last couple of months, we've successfully demonstrated the technology we're patenting to recover high quality carbon fibres from automotive, wind energy, hydrogen tank and aerospace CFRP waste. Even better, we've already incorporated these fibres into our recycled carbon fibre nonwovens and our customers have used these to make new CFRP parts. We're now moving the pilot furnace to our new R&D facility, where we'll continue trials, and can't wait to see this technology scaled up on the production line in 2025. #gen2carbon, #carbonfibrerecycling,#circulareconomy

"This collaboration will facilitate the integration of sustainable materials into manufacturing processes, supporting the transition towards a circular economy" says Dr. Johannes Martin, Market Manager Composites & Tooling at Biesterfeld, about our new exclusive cooperation with Gen 2 Carbon - a pioneer in sustainable carbon fibre solutions. We're happy to annouce that with immediate effect, Biesterfeld will represent and promote Gen 2 Carbon’s recycled carbon fibre products covering the territory of the European Union, Norway, Turkey and Switzerland. You want to learn more about our new partner and their innovative approach to recycling carbon fibre, transforming waste materials into high-quality, reusable carbon fibre products?

Very impressive worked presented at the Structural Power Workshop organised by Emile Greenhalgh of Imperial College at the Royal Academy of Engineering yesterday. Advances in the use of carbon fibre based composites to provide "weightless" or "volumeless" energy storage give a pathway towards multifunctional structures that help us become more resource efficient. Good to see that the importance of sustainability and recyclability was also recognised. #structuralpower, #gen2carbon, #resourceefficiency, #imperialcollege

CompPair has teamed up with Gen 2 Carbon , a British company focused on the delivery of recycled carbon fibres! ♻️ At CompPair, we are committed to revolutionizing the use of carbon fibres by enhancing their circularity. 🔄 With Gen 2 Carbon, we are giving new life to waste and promoting the adoption of recycled fibres in various industrial applications. The magic truly happens when we combine recycled fibres with our innovative HealTech resin. This dynamic duo not only reduces environmental impacts during production but also throughout the product's lifetime, as it is designed for repair. 🌍 Curious to see the results of one of our collaborations in action? Have a look at our latest end-user product launch, which proudly features recycled carbon fibres sourced from wind turbine waste: https://lnkd.in/eS6ad_eC Join us on our journey to revolutionise composite materials, paving the way for the development of greener composite parts! Together, we can make a difference. #HealableComposites #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Innovation #Partnership #CompPair #Gen2Carbon Amaël Cohades, PhD Eléonore Wild Frazer Barnes
