And, unlike thermosets, thermoplastic materials are able to be easily thermoformed to the exact shape required before inserting into the injection mold. The design team at Rome worked closely with the Avient advanced composites technical team and a local thermoformer, trialing various combinations of engineered resin and reinforcement, fiberglass content, and laminate configurations.

Advanced Composites Explained Polystrand Composite Reinforced Panels - Application Bulletin Polystrand Nonwoven/Composite Panels for vehicle interiors 

APPLICATION BULLETIN Replace complicated in-house panel fabrication with ready-to-install engineered composites. Advanced composites offer the marine industry an alternative to the extensive labor and time required by traditional methods for fabricating watercraft panels. In contrast to VARTM panels, which are highly labor intensive and require extended curing, PolyOne panels come ready to install.
