Barnet and Carbon Fiber Conversions (CFC) Announce Strategic Partnership

Barnet and Carbon Fiber Conversions (CFC) have announced a strategic partnership. Among the key objectives of the collaboration is expanding the global market for recycled carbon fibers in the plastics sector.

Carbon Fiber Conversions brings its comprehensive expertise in carbon fiber preparation and processing to this partnership. Established over a decade ago, the company has proven itself as a reliable and innovative player in carbon fiber recycling and processing. Barnet, with over 125 years of experience in the global fiber market, will complement this expertise by leveraging its international network and strong global market presence to introduce CarboFlow.

CarboFlow is a 100% recycled carbon fiber that offers controlled properties, proven consistency and performance for reinforcing thermoplastic compounds. The delivery of more than 5,000 tonnes of CarboFlow to serial production applications since its introduction demonstrates the material's reliability and strong industrial demand.

With CarboFlow, Barnet is expanding its portfolio alongside high-performance carbon fiber products with a practical and sustainable solution. CFC has established itself as a trusted partner in processing carbon fibers suitable for gravimetric feeding in high-performance plastics.

Dr. Marcel Sittel-Faraj, founder of Carbon Fiber Conversions, said: "By combining our technical expertise with Barnet's global sales force, we are creating a strong platform for growth and innovation."

Barnet also sees significant potential in this partnership: Jan Druve, Carbon Category Manager, stated: "CFC's products and technical expertise provide a perfect fit to expand our current work on carbon fiber recycling. Together we can enter new markets and provide efficient and sustainable solutions to our customers worldwide."
