Rockman-Moldex – The Leading Carbon & Aerospace Composites Companies in India

Composite materials are those which are formed by joining two different types of materials and when one of these material is carbon, then it is known as a carbon composite. The invention of Carbon composite has been a grand breakthrough in the field of fibre-reinforced plastics, which has been popularly in use in the engineering structures for past four decades.

In January 2017, Rockman entered the industry of carbon composites by acquiring Moldex composites, which had come into formal existence in the year 2007 and had started by making and moulding carbon composite materials. Moldex Composites has also won many awards including the two awards for innovation in Automotive Applications, and Art & Architecture respectively, in 2013 and the two awards for Outstanding Innovation in the field of Composites, during the International Conference and Exhibition of Reinforced Plastics in 2015. By joining hands with Rockman, Moldex has multiplied its strengths for an even better business positioning.

The industry of Carbon composites a relatively new industry to appear in the field of material science and ever since carbon composites have been invented, they have been leading the way as the most advanced fibre material being extremely lightweight and strongest in its category, as well as fireproof and waterproof. Carbon composites are, hence, scoring their application in a wide range of industries like Motorsports, Automotive, Defence, Aerospace, Wind Energy, Medical Industry and Sporting goods. All these industries are now becoming dependent on carbon fibres for their needs because of its unique properties and Rockman has taken this opportunity to develop the best grade carbon composites by joining hands with one off the best carbon composite producing companies in the country.

Since the aircrafts and rockets need to be lightweight and weatherproof, it becomes important to develop the lightest fibre material for them that can ensure strength and stability that can be used inside and outside of these air/space– crafts. There have been several inventions regarding this, but the carbon composites have been proved to be the best and are hence being used as Aerospace composites. Aerospace composites are light weight, have high tensile strength, high chemical resistance, and high thermal tolerance and are waterproof, fireproof as well as stiff. These are also used in Commercial aircraft, military craft, helicopters, business jets, general aviation aircraft and space craft all make substantial use of composites, both inside and outside.

Rockman has been developing the carbon composite fibres for this purpose and for other uses like in the racing cars, to laminate reinforced concrete structures, tennis and badminton racquets, musical instruments, dentistry, railways, firearms, robotics and many more. Rockman is backed up by the Hero Group which is an established business group and it aids all its companies with infrastructure, monetary and technological help, by the virtue of its position in the business world.

Being a part of the most respected Hero Group and adding its power to the field of carbon composites by acquiring Moldex Composites, Rockman has become one of the best Composites companies in India, already on the path of greatness, with an ambition to become even better.
