HEOL COMPOSITES

Heol Composites is an expert in the fabrication of hollow parts with reinforced mechanical properties in a single-stage process. We have perfectly mastered autoclave 7 bars curing, pre-preg carbon/epoxy, in female molds in aluminum or infused carbon. We have patented an industrial process that allows us to manufacture the parts in one go (without additional machining), and parts with complicated structures, hollow but reinforced with longitudinal stringers, extremely resistant and above all incredibly light. We are known in the competitive sailing sector since 2002 for our carbon parts, regularly getting to the podium in the most prestigious inshore and offshore races. Skippers and teams confirm that our advanced technology and our reliability have contributed to their greatest victories. Our spars (rigging elements such as masts, booms, spinnaker poles, bowsprits, spreaders, mainsail battens), our appendages (submerged elements, such as lifting rudders, keel fins, daggerboards, and foils with adjustable flaps), and our internal structural parts have mechanical specifications which are optimized for competition. We have markedly participated in making the famous boats fly (GC32, TF35, 60' IMOCAS, ULTIMS, AC45, Mini 6.50...). Our knowledge, which developed in the highly demanding context of competitive sailing, is adapted to industrial and aeronautical applications and to automotive racing. We design technical solutions for niche segments, where the lightness of carbon combined with its resistance allows us to go higher, faster, and be stronger.
