Natural flax fibres for composites

Fabric, flax mat or unidirectional flax veil

Flax mat is presented as an option for complex geometries in infusion or RTM. Fabrics and unidirectional veils differ in construction and orientation. Compare these options according to the part's shape and process, not just because they are natural fibres.

Check each material's data sheet to select the resin and manufacturing conditions. If you need fibre with epoxy resin already incorporated, the flax prepreg subcategory provides a different supply form.

Applications and material selection

Fibrimat F450 and FlaxDry BL 200 describe uses in padel rackets, bicycle frames, skis and boards where vibration damping matters, as well as transport and design. Choose the mat for the complex shapes covered by its product information, the fabric for a woven construction and Flaxtape when the laminate needs fibres in one direction.

For material with resin already incorporated, browse flax prepregs; when comparing materials for a mixed laminate, explore reinforcement fibres.
