Providing advice about
how to benefit from
recycled carbon fiber
composite

Fairmat provides advice to its customers about how to gain maximum benefit from using recycled carbon fiber composite. Products that may previously be designed and manufactured from metals, wood, plastic, etc. are now being replaced by recycled carbon fiber composite; It is an enabling technology and can open up new ways of designing improved products to achieve higher technical performance through lightweight strength.

For many applications, recycled carbon fiber composite can mean lower whole lifecycle costs than using traditional materials, due to benefits such as durability and low in-use energy costs.

Our mission

Our goal is to recycle carbon fiber composite for re-use in composite material applications delivering a positive impact for the planet.

This commitment is reflected in our team’s daily operations by an approach that aims to improve our environmental and social performance, both for our plant and in our office.

We want to help prevent landfilling or incinerations of a high growing raw material while reducing the emission of CO2 per kilo recycled thanks to our proprietary technology.

With respect to our stakeholders,
this conviction is reflected in:
  • A strict code of ethics
  • A well-regulated industrial process
  • An environment of trust that is based on a fully transparent communication about the future of their waste

Our Team

At Fairmat, we are passionate about the fact that we are
contributing to create something great and unique to the
carbon composite recycling business.
