Infinite Applications,
Endless Possibilities
METOL is not just a material; it’s a solution that adapts to a wide range of industries and applications. From automotive to renewable energy, our thermoplastic polymer offers unmatched versatility, performance, and sustainability. Designed to meet the demands of modern manufacturing, METOL can be used in any process where strength, durability, and recyclability are paramount.
Wind Energy (Renewables)
As the demand for renewable energy grows, so does the need for sustainable materials in the production of wind turbines. METOL offers a groundbreaking solution for the manufacture of turbine blades and other structural components. Unlike traditional thermosetting composites, METOL can be reclaimed and recycled at the end of the turbine’s life, eliminating the need for landfills and reducing environmental impact.
Key benefits:
- Fully recyclable turbine blades.
- High strength for durable, long-lasting components.
- Cost-effective over the lifecycle of the turbine.
Marine
Marine environments demand materials that are both tough and resistant to harsh conditions. METOL composites are designed to withstand the rigours of the sea, making them ideal for boat hulls, decks, and other structural components. Its low viscosity and excellent fibre saturation result in lighter, stronger, and more resilient marine structures.
Key benefits:
- Superior resistance to corrosion and impact.
- Lightweight for improved vessel efficiency.
- Recyclable, reducing end-of-life disposal concerns.
Utilities and infrastructure
Oil and gas pipelines, pressure vessels, poles and barriers
In industries where high pressure and extreme conditions are the norm, METOL provides a robust, recyclable alternative to traditional materials. Its ability to withstand high pressures and temperatures makes it an ideal choice for pipes, pressure vessels, and other industrial applications.
Key benefits:
- Increased resistance to pressure and heat.
- Long-lasting performance, reducing maintenance costs.
- Recyclability that supports sustainable industry practices.
Automotive
Driving the future of automotive manufacturing
METOL is driving the future of automotive manufacturing. With its lightweight yet durable properties, it’s the perfect choice for producing high-performance parts like body panels, interior components, and structural elements. Its low melt viscosity ensures that even the most complex shapes are easily moulded, and because METOL is 100% recyclable, automotive manufacturers can drastically reduce their environmental impact without sacrificing performance.
Key benefits:
- Reduced weight for improved fuel efficiency.
- Recyclable materials that support eco-friendly production.
- Increased durability and mechanical strength.
Sports and leisure
A win, win for performance and sustainability
In the world of sports and leisure, performance is everything. METOL delivers high-impact, lightweight materials perfect for applications ranging from hockey sticks and bike frames to tennis rackets and helmets. With METOL, manufacturers can create products that not only perform at the highest level but can also be recycled and reused, keeping lifecycle waste to a minimum. From kayaks to shin guards, METOL provides ballistic-level impact performance, making it the clear choice for durability, strength, and sustainability.
Key benefits:
- Exceptional impact resistance.
- Lightweight, high-strength materials.
- Fully recyclable, reducing product lifecycle waste.
Aerospace
In the aerospace industry, every gram matters. METOL delivers lightweight, high-strength composite solutions that excel in the most demanding environments. Ideal for structural components, interior fittings, and even composite skins, METOL offers superior performance while contributing to the reduction of waste. Its ability to be reclaimed and reused aligns perfectly with the industry’s growing focus on sustainability.
Key benefits:
- High strength-to-weight ratio.
- Excellent resistance to temperature and environmental stress.
- Fully recyclable, reducing lifecycle waste.
Sustainability in Action
METOL doesn’t just meet the needs of these industries—it surpasses them. By offering a fully recyclable material with superior mechanical properties, METOL provides manufacturers with a cost-effective and environmentally responsible solution. Whether it’s creating wind turbine blades that can be recycled over and over, or lightweight automotive components that reduce fuel consumption, METOL is paving the way for a greener future.
