Plastics for Aerospace
10,000 m flight altitude, nearly 1,000 km/h speed and an outdoor temperature of -50 °C – as passengers, we don't feel a thing. Aerospace engineers master many challenges to take us to our destination quickly and safety: Aeroplanes must be very light-weight, fuel-efficient, but at the same time mechanically stable and perfectly safe. Additionally, every airline wants to increase its fleet's performance and minimise maintenance times. Constructors therefore must develop aeroplanes that are long reliable even at high stress. We support these constructors with our aerospace plastics. We offer a great selection of thermoplastic and composites suitable for these demanding conditions. They will help you in construction of light-weight, safe and long-lived aircraft.

The performance and reliability of plastics for aerospace are influenced by a variety of factors. These factors must be taken into account in order to select the right materials. Examples:
- Meeting of standards and directives such as BSS 7239, FAR 25.853 & FAR 28.855, ATM 3.0005, AITM 2.0007 and UL94
- Mechanical stress
- Thermal stress
- Contact with fuel
- Construction requirements, dimensions and tolerances
