North Thin Ply Technology (NTPT) has officially opened its new production facility in Zory, Poland.

The new facility in Zory is part of NTPT’s growth strategy to meet increasing demand for its thin ply and conventional prepregs. This investment has included the installation of a machine dedicated to higher volume prepreg production, allowing the company to ramp up production for higher volume marine and industrial sectors, as well as the traditional high tech applications such as Formula 1 and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

‘Poland is a great place for our fast growing business,’ said James Austin, CEO of NTPT. ‘This facility in Zory represents a 300% growth in floor space from our original Polish factory and we plan to manufacture some of the world’s most advanced materials here. We will also commence our new golf shaft manufacturing business during the third quarter.’
