This award-winning Company's revolutionary product, NanoStitch™, significantly increases inter-laminar strength by changing the shear, fracture, compression, and fatigue performance of composite materials. As a fast growing, well capitalized company, N12 is scaling manufacturing capacity, testing materials for multiple OEM programs, and collaborating with the world's leading prepreg composite suppliers to develop a full range of certified NanoStitch™-enhanced fibre/resin systems. The Company is also developing NanoStitch™-enhanced products compatible with resin infusion techniques, thermoplastics and adhesives. "NanoStitch™ is a unique enabler that broadens what can be made with composite material," said N12 CEO Brad Berkson.
He also acknowledges the importance of this first industry event. "We already have over 100 OEMs globally exploring and testing our technology and have now committed the capital through 2018 and beyond to build industrial-scale NanoStitch™ manufacturing capacity. CAMX is an important US platform to demonstrate N12's technology and capabilities to its audience of industry leaders," said Brad. "'Making the Best, Better,' is what NanoStitch™ and N12 is all about."
The Company can be found at booth S-123 in the CAMX Exposition Hall.
