In years to come, the Carbon Fibers & Composites business unit will profit particularly strongly from the substitution process of basic materials.
The carbon fibers and carbon fiber composites produced by CFC are in increasing demand as replacements for traditional materials due to their unique properties such as lightweight and stiffness.
As the only European company with own raw material supply, carbon fiber technology and an integrated value added chain right up to the finished component, SGL Group deploys its core competences in high-temperature technology, carbonization and graphitization.
The company is currently benefiting particularly from a strong demand upturn in the aerospace industry, the automotive sector and alternative energy sources such as wind power.
