MARKET INFORMATION : ENGINEERED STRUCTURES DELIVERING THE FUTURE OF COMPOSITE SOLUTIONS ENGINEERED STRUCTURES Composites can offer many advantages over other engineering materials, particularly if the application requires strength or stiffness with low weight, or is a fatigue-driven design. Gurit has the capability to prove the benefits of composites for new applications through structura engineering, prototyping and component manufacturing Gurit has a track record of innovation in the composites industry spanning 30 years. From engineering the first advanced composite sailing boat, patented material technology such as SPRINT®, wind turbine blade tooling capability for moulds up to 70m, and Class A carbon fibre body panel manufacture for the automotive industry, Gurit is a proven partner whatever your challenge Gurit has global capabilities in Design, Engineering, Materials Science, Prototyping combination of these skills to realise the most advanced composite structures, and deliver a solution that is optimised to the project-specific requirements. Gurit focuses on exceeding customer expectations, whether that's proving a unique design concept, requiring highest performance, or designing for series manufacture, with the cost the primary driver.

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Gurit’s heritage lies in engineering high performance yachts such as Americas Cup, Open 60’s and Volvo 70’s. However, over the past 30 or so years, Gurit has been involved with almost every type of marine craft including military power boats, production cruisers, and some of the world’s most spectacular superyachts. Whilst Gurit is most widely recognised for its marine expertise, the team has considerable experience in the provision of innovative engineering solutions to many different structures, some of which have never been tackled in composites before. The range of...
