Composites enable our everyday lives – in transport, energy, healthcare, defence, communications and leisure. Their unique properties help us to design and make better products with less waste that last longer, helping us to address urgent societal challenges, such as sustainability and net-zero. We are the world-leading innovation centre for composites. Find out how over 350 specialist engineers and our state-of the-art technology testbed can help you solve your challenges.
We drive innovation in advanced composites. Our team of specialist engineers are pioneering new processes for the design and manufacture of composites and developing ground-breaking technologies. Providing an open-access technology testbed, we work with companies across every industry sector to trial and prove new ideas and scale to industrial application.
Sustainability underpins every programme we deliver. We’re taking the global lead in the development of sustainable composites, spearheading a cross-industry partnership, kickstarting projects to mature existing technologies and explore new and alternative reuse and recycling routes, investigating sustainable feedstocks and embedding comprehensive life-cycle analysis across every project.
The need to embrace digital transformation has never been stronger. The challenge is how to harness digital technology to fuel innovation, agility and growth. At the NCC, we work with engineering and manufacturing companies and digital technology providers of all sizes to develop innovative and impactful digital solutions. Working across industry, we help organisations to reduce costs, enhance their productivity, reduce time to market and develop sustainable products.
