Advantex® Glass Reinforcements composites

Product catalog summary
Overview: AdvAntex® Glass Reinforcements are composite materials that offer superior performance compared to traditional materials. These composites are particularly advantageous in industries such as oil and gas, power plants, mining, industrial, water/sewage, marine, and tidal and sea wave energy.
Key Benefits:
  • High strength and lightweight
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Low electrical and thermal conductivity
  • Transparency to EMI+RFI transmissions
These properties contribute to durability, design flexibility, lower maintenance, reduced downtime, and lower installation costs.
Applications: AdvAntex® composites are used in various applications including pipes for corrosive chemicals, cooling towers, structural components, tanks, grating, and railing systems. They are also used in bridge decking, cable trays, containment systems, ducting, electrical housings, pollution control systems, and more.
Market Growth: The demand for glass reinforced composites is growing, with Owens Corning being a significant player in this market. The company has facilities in 15 countries and employs over 9,000 people, contributing to 39% of Owens Corning's revenue.
Product Range: OCV™ businesses offer a range of AdvAntex® products including surfacing veils, single-end roving, and continuous filament mats, all providing various strengths and resistances.
Company Information: Owens Corning is a leading global producer of building materials and glass fiber reinforcements. It has been a Fortune 500 company for 54 years, with a commitment to sustainability and innovation in glass fiber technology.
