Boatspeed developed Custom Preg® over a number of years. It is an “in house computer controlled impregnation system” of applying the resin into the various fibres they employ and was funded in part by and R & D Grant from the Australian Federal Government. This move to Custom Preg® away from generic prepregs was a deliberate one. Advantages they sought from the initial phases were to enhance core-bonding strength, increase longevity of laminate, tailor resin content and produce laminate properties that were of the highest standard. Boatspeed is able to use “off the shelf” prepregs if the client so desires, but their system of preference is their own. Boatspeed is more than happy to expand on this system with designers and clients if questions arise.
