Nandina REM brings to market high-quality carbon fibre materials reclaimed from end-of-life aircrafts – a breakthrough in aviation circularity
Nandina REM and A*STAR collaboration pioneers high-quality carbon fibre recovery technologies SINGAPORE, 19 February 2024 – Nandina REM announced today the launch of high-quality carbon fibre material reclaimed from end-of-life aircrafts and reprocessed to aviation specifications. This bridges the gap between unused materials from retired aircrafts and the growing demand from manufacturing industries for high-quality resources. The novel approach addresses the long-standing issue of ensuring reclaimed carbon fibre retains the same mechanical properties as its virgin counterpart. As a composite material, reclaiming carbon fibre is historically challenging as it cannot simply be melted down and reformed, with traditional processes compromising
