Company description

Lineat Composites develops fibre-based composite materials that aims to be more sustainable.

Lineat Composites is a small spin out (comprising 6 full time staff: CEO, CTO, Chief Engineer, Chair, Mechanical Technician, and Mechanical Engineer and a Scientific Advisory Board made up of Chief Scientist and Innovation Advisor, Chief Scientifc Advisor, and Scientific Advisor). Lineat is introducing a new aligned fibre material format with superior formability to simplify composite manufacturing. The HiPerDiF fibre alignment technology (a patented technology originally produced within the HiPerDuCT programme grant EPEP/I02946X/1) produces highly aligned discontinuous fibre tapes that exhibit mechanical performance comparable to continuous fibre composites and have a greatly improved formability to simplify existing manual and automated processes. This forms the basis of high-performance sustainable composites by allowing the use and re-use of reclaimed chopped fibres in technical composite parts, helping to reduce the carbon footprint of composite materials. The tapes can be used as a direct substitute for continuous fibre UD tapes in existing supply chains for various markets including sports, marine, automotive, and aerospace.

Project impact

On 7th February 2022, Lineat was pleased to announce their partnership with the National Composite Centre, through their SME Affiliates membership scheme. Lineat will be based at the Emerson Green facility for the foreseeable future, enabling them to further develop their unique processes.

2025 Grant for R&D Lead participant

Advanced fibre floc modelling

1 Jul 2025 to 30 Sep 2025

Awarded
£10,058
Total cost £10,058

This Analysis for Innovators projects takes NELs expertise in fluid & particle dynamics and applies it to Lineats novel recycled carbon fibre process. Carbon fibre is renowned for its high strength to weight ratio, frequently used in lightweighting applications across a range of markets. However, it comes with heavy environmental and financial costs. It i...

Advanced Structural Product Integrated Airframe (ASPIRE)

1 May 2025 to 30 Apr 2028

Awarded
£544,393
Total cost £777,704

New sustainable innovations are necessary to meet the evolving and critical needs of Co2e reduction targets for the aerospace sector and to deliver costs that remain competitive, maintain and grow capability and onshore work to the UK. Manufacturing carbon composite airframe structure today demands a high level of manual labour involving many separate com...

2024 Collaborative R&D Lead participant

rCF4NCF

1 Dec 2024 to 30 Nov 2027

Awarded
£245,112
Total cost £350,160

Lineat have produced a first to market highly aligned pre-preg tape, made out of recycled carbon fibre (rCF). Feedback across the market has been very good, but most interest lies in dry tape material, that can be pre-pregged later, or used in other applications like non-crimp fabrics (NCFs). The aim of this project is to develop the process of adding a l...
