Teijin adds new carbon fiber line
April 24, 2006
| A version of this story appeared in
Volume 84, Issue 17
Teijin will build a 2,700-metric-ton carbon fiber line at its Mishima site in Japan. Once the $90 million expansion is completed in April 2008, Teijin will operate 6,400 metric tons of capacity at Mishima; 3,400 metric tons at Oberbruch, Germany; and 2,000 metric tons at its site in Rockwood, Tenn. The company says demand for the material is growing by 10 to 15% annually, largely due to increased use of composite materials by aircraft manufacturers. Teijin expects global demand to reach 30,000 metric tons in 2008.
The power is now in your (nitrile gloved) hands
