Nidaplast Composites Company Logo
NIDAPLAST 8R are honeycomb structures, 8mm mesh, in polypropylene used as the core of structural sandwich panels. Nidaplast 8R is the standard product in the range. It is suitable for use by contact or projection stratification. The surface coating (polyester non-woven) allows practically all types of materials to be laminated or bonded, for applications in many fields: building, transport, water sports, industrial equipment, sport, leisure. The Nidaplast 8R product has the " Naval Approval Certificate " issued by DNV. Germanischer Lloyd certificate. The polyester nonwoven present on nidaplast 8R offers an ideal surface for impregnation with thermosetting resins (polyester, epoxy, etc.).
