National Composites network logo

Venue: Begbroke Science Park, Oxford


Boatbuilding with Advanced Composites - Competing Successfully will show how advances in fibre reinforced composites can help the UK boatbuilding industry remain competitive in global markets.

The conference is organised by the National Composites Network and Faraday Advance and is designed for the UK boatbuilding industry in association with the British Marine Federation. Leading experts in advanced marine composites including boatbuilders, materials suppliers, designers and researchers will present the opportunities offered by the latest materials and processes, including innovative approaches to design and manufacture in boatbuilding. They will explain how to successfully implement changes from current practices, and make the case for investment by the industry matched where appropriate by public sector support.

The conference will interest all builders and designers of recreational and small commercial craft; suppliers of materials and processing equipment; researchers and academics involved in design, materials and processes for boatbuilding; and, those involved with standards and certification for boat design and construction.

The cost is only £50 per delegate including lunch and refreshments.
