Composites
Composites offer unique opportunities for products that require high strength and stiffness combined with low weight, but development involves significant investment and risks. Companies face challenges with material selection, process development, and verification of properties prior to production, while customers are placing increasingly high demands on sustainability and circularity. Investing in in-house development expertise and equipment for composites is costly, and many companies lack the capacity to quickly test and verify new solutions to shorten time to market.
RISE develops and verifies sustainable composites throughout the entire chain, from idea to production. In our test bed, companies have access to expertise and equipment covering material selection, design, process development, and verification under one roof. We become your temporary development department and shorten time-to-market by quickly scaling up with the necessary expertise. Through virtual manufacturing, we can predict how components will behave before production, minimizing costly full-scale testing. We verify material properties under extreme conditions and support upscaling to industrial production.

Fast Path from Idea to Industrialisation for PaperShell
Fossil fuel-based plastics, composite materials and aluminium may soon be replaced by a new biomaterial developed by PaperShell in collaboration with RISE. The product is an excellent example of how to quickly take an innovation all the way from idea to industrialisation.
