Intelligent release liners for prepreg composites

With a strong technical expertise in silicone coating, Gascogne Laminates positions itself as the preferred partner for the composite market by innovating and developing a comprehensive range of intelligent release solutions specifically designed for the manufacturing of prepregs.  

While most manufacturers give a technical description of their products, Gascogne Laminates considers release liners for composites differently and provides dedicated product ranges by end-use markets, focusing on satisfying specific aerospace, wind energy, sports & leisure and automotive requirements.  

Their innovative approach is based on a screening and ranking exercise of multiple criteria and performance levels expected from handling, processing and non-contamination of release liners to optimally satisfy all end-use market requirements.  

In line with their vision to “become the preferred partner for the composite market”, Gascogne Laminates invested more than €10 million in 2012, acquiring a state-of-the-art silicone coating machine.  

This new machine’s automated silicone formulation preparation associated with in-line continuous control systems (silicone coating weight, humidity rate, web temperature) ensures the ultimate release consistency and reliability available on the market.
