Composite Manufacturing in Charlottetown: FAQ

What composite manufacturing services are available in Canada?
Canadian composite manufacturers offer prepreg autoclave layup, wet layup with vacuum bagging, resin transfer moulding (RTM), vacuum-assisted RTM (VARTM), filament winding, pultrusion, and compression moulding. Many shops also provide CNC trimming, bonding, painting, and NDT inspection as part of their service offering.
How much does composite manufacturing cost in Canada?
Composite manufacturing costs vary widely by process and material. A simple fibreglass wet-layup part might cost $200 - $500 for a prototype. Carbon fibre prepreg autoclave parts typically start at $500 - $2,000 for small components. Tooling (moulds) represent a significant upfront cost ranging from $2,000 - $50,000+ depending on size, complexity, and required production life.
What is the difference between carbon fibre and fibreglass?
Carbon fibre offers approximately 3 - 5 times the stiffness and 1.5 - 2 times the strength of fibreglass at roughly 70% of the weight. However, fibreglass costs 5 - 10 times less than carbon fibre and is more impact-resistant. Fibreglass is preferred for cost-sensitive and impact-prone applications, while carbon fibre is chosen where weight savings and stiffness are critical.
Can you make composite parts for aerospace applications in Canada?
Yes. Several Canadian composite manufacturers hold AS9100 and NADCAP accreditation for aerospace composite fabrication. Canada has a strong aerospace composites sector, with shops serving Bombardier, Bell Textron, and other major OEMs. These facilities operate autoclaves, clean rooms, and NDT inspection equipment to aerospace standards.
