Polyspeed® laminates are fiber-reinforced epoxy resin impregnated materials, that are supplied in a cured state with established mechanical properties, they are chemically stable and ready-to-use for compounding with foam or adhesives.
HexMC® is a high performance molding material, suitable for the production of complex shaped parts and specifically designed for compression molding. With long carbon fibers (50mm) and a low resin content, HexMC® provides better mechanical properties than any other short or long fiber molding compound.
If you need to produce cost-effective high performance components, in medium to high production volumes, then Modipur® could be your solution. Modipur® polyurethane systems enable complex shapes to be achieved at low cure temperatures and in rapid production cycles.Hexcel supplies a wide range of formulated two-component systems that are used for sports, automotive and other industrial applications. The Modipur® range includes semi-flexible and integral foams with closed or open cell structures. The products are used as core materials, as insulation and/or for their adhesive properties, in sports and industrial applications.HexFlow® is a polyurethane laminating resin that provides outstanding mechanical properties. HexFlow® is ideal for applications requiring high stiffness, short cure cycles at moderate temperatures and with a class A surface.We are not selling from the catalog – our strength is the creation of tailor made solutions for individual customers and partners.
The aerospace industry is the greatest consumer of Hexcel prepregs, for civil aircraft, military jets, helicopters, aero-engines or space satellite and launchers. Hexcel’s range of resin formulations for aerospace prepregs includes a wide range of epoxies for highly loaded parts and supreme toughness; BMI systems for high temperature performance; phenolics for fire, smoke and toxicity performance in aircraft interiors; and cyanate esters for space structures and satellite applications. HexPly® prepregs are available with HexForce® woven and multiaxial reinforcements, or as unidirectional tapes in various forms.
Hexcel features custom fabric design and manufacturing. We tailor our customers’ reinforcement fabrics for optimum performance. We are able to combine two or more different fibers (carbon, glass, aramid, ceramics, Thorstand™) to use different weaving solutions, produce preforms, etc. Our engineers are waiting to hear your requirements in order to find the best solution from Hexcel’s wide range of products.
HiTape® innovative high performance dry unidirectional reinforcements are designed to meet the requirements of Aircraft Primary Structures made by cost-effective Out of Autoclave (OOA) technologies such as vacuum infusion or injection.
Woven reinforcements are the result of at least two threads which are interlaced at 0° (the warp) and 90° (the weft), with the weave style varying according to the required performance. Woven reinforcements are available in a wide range of weave patterns including plain, twill, and satin weaves. Woven reinforcements are easy to handle, provide good drape and formability, and look good.

HiMax® Multiaxial reinforcements, also known as non-crimp fabrics (NCF), are multiple layers of unidirectional fibers, with each ply placed in a different orientation or axis. These layers are then typically stitchbonded to form a fabric. The range includes fabrics manufactured by Hexcel in Leicester, UK at the site that was formerly Formax and was acquired by Hexcel in 2016. Multiaxial reinforcements provide strength and stiffness in multiple directions depending on the controlled orientation of the fibers. The weight distribution in the fabric is optimized and it is possible to mix fiber types.
