A comprehensive offering for boatbuilding and other industries 

Gurit also supplies advanced composite materials to the full spectrum of marine projects worldwide including industry-leading prepregs, structural core materials, adhesives, coatings, as well as laminating and infusion systems. The new SE75 prepreg line builds on the the heritage and performance of Gurit’s industry-leading SE84 prepreg but has more versatile cure possibilities from 12 hours at 70ºC to 45 minutes at 120ºC, whilst maintaining an 8-week shelf life at 18-22°C. 

A complementary range of epoxies, resins, and adhesives for the marine industry are also available, such as the new SpabondTM 400 adhesives, AmpregTM laminating systems, PRIMETM infusion products, and the AMPROTM multipurpose epoxy system. Gurit has re-engineered its formulated products for simplicity and ease of use, and many use bio-based materials as standard. Kevin Cadd, Product Manager for Formulated, says “When developing Spabond™ 400, we had to ask ourselves: how do you improve on the legendary performance of Spabond™?  The answer is quite simply to make it better and easier to use than ever before.  Which is exactly what we have achieved with the all new Spabond™ 400.” 

Gurit’s CorecellTM M structural foam offers high toughness and impact resistant characteristics and provides a combination of high shear strength with low density, high elongation, high temperature resistance and low resin uptake.
