TURNKEY SYSTEMS | LFTs


Weis describes the LFT-G market as “a niche


market, which is getting bigger and bigger.” He says the company has, to date, seen the highest level of interest from European companies and largely from organisations that already have some presence in the sector. While interest is growing, getting the true value


of LFTs across to many end users remains a challenge, according to Weis. “Unfortunately, most of them just compare the material prices and the data sheet values of LFT products and standard compounds. That is, in my opinion, the complete wrong way,” he says. “Customers should evaluate the material behaviour under the realistic boundary conditions of the final application.” Weis says he believes the true potential of LFTs is in their thermomechanical behaviour, which delivers real gains in the most demanding metal replacement applications requiring outstanding crash behaviour and long term structural stability.
