Redefining Marine Reinforcements

At Owens Corning, we support the marine industry with Fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite solutions that are safe, reliable, and able to face tough conditions in the most demanding environments. Fiberglass materials can be used in boat hulls, decks, and structural members. For decades, they have outperformed traditional materials, and will continue to surpass your standards for many years to come. Whether you use spray up, hand lay-up, infusion, or light RTM, Owens Corning has products tailored to meet your process and part performance needs.

Process Features

Spray Up

Designed for fast wet-out, ease of rolling, even glass dispersion for good aesthetics, and low fuzz, and low process disruptions.

Hand Lay Up

Designed for drapability and conformability, wet carry strength, capability to produce good aesthetics, as well as fast wet-out, and ease of rolling.

Infusion

Designed for high permeability, uniform resin flow, and drapability, as well as capability to produce good aesthetics and fast wet-out.

Light-RTM

Designed for low fiber print, conformability and stretch-ability, permeability, as well as capability to produce good aesthetics.

Solutions For How You Build

Our portfolio of products is designed to support you however you build. Our chopped strand mats and rovings wet out faster while maintaining strength to give you the performance and lightweighting you need for small parts, structural members, hulls, and decks. While our fabrics help to provide the smooth, finished aesthetic that your customers want.
