Resintex Technology S.r.l. is this year exhibiting new product ranges at Seatec 2012 in Carrara, Italy, which runs
from 8th - 10th February. On their stand (Hall E, stand 1095) they will be promoting an extended range of specialty
raw materials, reinforcements and ancillary composite products which they supply across Italy, as well as their
closed mould technology expertise. Resintex Technology is the official distribution partner for leading manufacturers
such as: Scott Bader, SP High-Modulus, METYX Composites®, Camelyaf, 3A Composites, Alan Harper Composites,
ACC Silicones, Richmond Aerovac, Fibertex, Westech, RST-5, Total Seal, Eurovacuum, Brianza Plastica, Safas
Corporation, and FRP Accessories.
Resintex Technology S.r.l supplies all the materials, silicone bagging
technology and closed mould technical support needed for the Activ-e
green project to produce by vacuum infusion an all electric composite 10
metre passenger boat which has zero emissions.
Of particular interest to FRP boat builders on the stand this year will be Scott Bader’s new marine approved
advanced D-Iso/NPG gelcoat Crystic® Permabright; the comparative technical results obtained clearly shows that
Scott Bader has developed a step change technology gelcoat which significantly outperforms established Iso/NPG
and Iso gelcoat technologies. Other high performance Crystic products which will be on display on the Resintex
Technology stand includes the range of Crestabond MMA primerless structural adhesives alongside the established
RINA certified Crestomer adhesives, marine approved Crystic infusion resins and the new Crestapol® 1250LV high
performance resin. They will also be showing the Crystic matched tooling system and Crystic Fireguard 75PA Excel
top coat for critical fire protection areas on a vessel, such as in engine compartments.
Resintex Technology will also be promoting the techniques and benefits of using closed mould production
technologies, such as reusable membrane infusion moulding (RMIM). During Seatec 2012, there will be regular live
demonstrations on their stand by Alan Harper Composites of the reusable silicone membrane fiRST® Technology
system, suitable for infusion and prepreg moulding. Resintex Technology continues to be very active in helping
boatbuilders apply closed mould technology to improve their production and help the environment.
The Activ-e ‘zero emissions’ all electric 10 metre open top passenger boat, constructed in fibreglass, is a successful
new ‘green’ project in Italy. Resintex Technology supplies all the materials, technical support and the silicone
membrane system for the Activ-e vessel which is now in production; vacuum infusion is used to fabricate the
composite hull and interior sections. During the development stages, Resintex Technology worked in close
collaboration with the Activ-e project team: Anselmo Mauri Costruzioni Nautiche (shipyard), h3o and Paolo Portinari
(project and naval architecture), AM Project Management (project management), Navyonica (electronic and electrical
assistance).
For the first time at Seatec 2012, Resintex Technology will also be promoting new glass and carbon reinforcement
materials. They have now secured distribution agreements with METYX Composites for their glass and carbon
fabrics, as well as METYCORE and METYCORE MAX ranges. They have also secured a distribution agreement
with Camelyaf for their glass chopped strand mats and woven rovings.
