G-TEX TM

GEN 2 CARBON Brand

Products:4

G-TEX TM is our range of comingled recycled carbon fiber/ thermoplastic nonwoven mats. These mats provide an excellent balance of mechanical properties, formability and good-quality surface finish. G-TEX TM nonwoven mats are made with PP, PA, PEI and PPS fibers. The dry mats can be direct formed into parts by compression molding or used as pre-consolidated sheets. G-TEX TM nonwoven mats are used today in automotive and aerospace applications.
