Industrial Composite Parts

Industrial challenges rarely have off-the-shelf solutions.

Whether it's improving durability in thermoforming for the packaging industry, reducing maintenance in material handling systems, or providing effective radiation shielding in secure environments, the right materials and engineering expertise can make a significant difference.

Globe partners with customers to develop custom composite components tailored to unique industrial challenges. By combining material science, engineering, and manufacturing expertise, we help customers improve reliability, extend service life, and reduce total ownership costs.

Composites offer many advantages for industrial parts. Composite parts can be self-lubricating, corrosion resistant, and more durable than metal. Globe has a team of engineers and chemists that can assess your needs and creatively design new parts, or redesign replacement parts, using the latest techniques and composite materials to radically improve performance for your company. Do you have hard to find parts or the OEM no longer supports or supplies the part? We can take an existing part and make replacement parts for you that perform even better than the original part, or create a new part to fit your needs.

Composite Valves, Bearings and More...
Globe has developed a family of thermoset and thermoplastic materials ideally suited for valves, that can replace traditional brass or leaded-brass material for valve applications. Now, valves can be made with FDA compliant material, require minimal secondary grinding and finishing operations, and deliver lower-cost, higher-performing fluid control.

Innovative Tooling Materials for Thermoforming
Globe now designs and develops innovative tooling materials for thermoforming via CMT Materials (CMT), our syntactic materials division. CMT Materials product line includes HYTAC® syntactic foam plug assists, used by leading toolmakers & thermoformers around the world. HYTAC plug assist materials are available for both Thin-Guage and Heavy-Gauge plastic molds.

CMT Materials' product line includes syntactic foam which is available in a variety of sizes: rod, sheet, or block. We also offer custom-cast solutions for large plugs with complex geometries. We provide materials for prototyping and vacuum forming with a variety of tooling and modeling boards. CMT is also the North American distributor for the METAPOR® line of porous aluminum materials.
