OUTDATED BOATBUILDING METHODS COST YOU

Switch to vacuum infusion to
cut labor costs and improve quality.
| Less resin. More control.

Why it's time to rethink your process

Hand lay-up is costing more than you think – in time, material and efficiency. That’s why leading boatbuilders are switching to vacuum infusion.

In this whitepaper you’ll find:

  • The hidden costs of hand lay-up
  • Why vacuum infusion is becoming the industry standard
  • A clear 4-step guide for process implementation

As Belle Blanding, Diab Application Center Manager, puts it: “Once the transition to vacuum infusion is complete, they will never want to go back to hand laminates.”

VACUUM INFUSION IN ACTION

See the difference: In this timelapse, you witness the vacuum infusion of a large catamaran hull using SAERTEX multiaxial reinforcements. The moment when resin flows through the dry fibers is not only impressive to watch, it also shows the efficiency and reliability of vacuum infusion compared to traditional hand lay-up.

The result: Lightweight, strong and consistent composite structures for marine applications.

  • Application: Infusion of large FRP structures for marine use
  • Reinforcement: Multiaxial glass fiber fabrics from SAERTEX
  • Customer: Aventura Yachts
