What's New in the Windfair World - AceBlade™ from Ahlstrom

Ahlstrom, a global high performance fiber-based materials company, launched Ahlstrom AceBlade™ Carbon earlier this month, a new product for the wind energy market. AceBlade™ Carbon is a patent pending, unidirectional carbon fiber reinforcement with superior fatigue resistance and enhanced mechanical properties. The product addresses the market need for  longer and lighter blades.

The product delivers significant benefits for designers and manufacturers of wind turbine blades. AceBlade™  Carbon is a cost effective solution for vacuum infusion processes. Through delivery of higher strength and stiffness as well as improved fatigue properties, longer and lighter blades can be manufactured with AceBlade™ Carbon.

The launch of Ahlstrom AceBlade™ Carbon aligns well with Ahlstrom's strategy. The company aims to grow with high performance product offerings for a clean and healthy environment. AceBlade™ Carbon delivers a product offering supporting environmentally sound technologies.

Ahlstrom's Building and Energy business area is a leading manufacturer of reinforcing wind energy materials, which are manufactured in Europe.
