Company: Helicoid Industries Inc.
Capabilities:

We provide biomimetic Helicoid™ composite technology to significantly improve fiber-reinforced composite (FRPs) parts impact toughness with 10% to 40% weight savings and reduction in raw material costs. Producing using Helicoid™ can improve cycle time by up to 27% which will result in a further reduction in manufacturing costs. Helicoid™ technology is easily incorporated with any type of FRPs (fiber/resin) and benefits are achieved using any raw materials and conventional manufacturing. Benefit in Automotive: 1) higher toughness of bio-based materials for improved sustainability of high volume components such as EV battery enclosures, 2) more durable, lighter and safer hydrogen composite storage units, 3)decrease in raw material usage and cost, and 4) light-weighting for higher fuel efficiency (ICE) and milage (EV).
