Resin Infusion
Conwed™ Flow Media is ideal for the resin infusion process for producing wind turbines, wind blades, and marine applications. This high-performance flow media has been specially engineered to retain up to 15% less resin than leading technology, creating significant raw material cost savings for composite manufacturers.
BENEFITS:
Total Cost Savings – Optimized edge geometry retains up to 15% less wasted resin
Flexible Edges – Protect sensitive vacuum bags and peel ply media from tearing during lay-up
Proven Performance – Flow media engineered and tested specifically for VARTM manufacturing
Global Manufacturing – Fast lead times with multiple manufacturing and quality certifications, including ISO 9001
Additional Media and Services – Mativ, the parent company of Conwed, also manufactures TPU film for vacuum bags and wind turbine blade leading edge protection for tape manufacturers. In-house lamination and slitting are also available
Why Resin Infusion?
- Allows the use of higher-viscosity resin
- Reduces fill time
- Shortens mold cycle time
- Extruded – NOT woven
- Will not unravel or fray
- Flow channels enhance liquid and airflow
