Materials
Materials and processes undergo continuous development and fibre composites are no exception. This group of materials was introduced in the 1950’s and have been an established industrial technology since 1970. Today products such as skis, wind generators, boats and a large number of vehicle components in addition to aerospace-industry (just to name a few examples) are manufactured in composite materials due to the superior properties of these materials.
 

At the beginning of the 90’s, CompRack were introduced to the problems associated with conventional trash racks and it soon became obvious that by introducing new material technology opened for a solution with superior properties. One of the areas to which special attention was paid during development work was ice and particularly frazil ice accumulation. CompRack’s low thermal conductivity combined with its special geometry and surface properties has shown that the risk for ice accumulation is dramatically reduced.
