Composite materials have emerged as

an important material system for industrial
and societal applications. India has a good
industrial base for making various products
using these materials. However, there is
no corresponding effort to impart education
for beginners on how to use these materials
and manufacture them. FRP Institute is
conducting this training programme to give
the basic understanding of the technology,
manufacturing methods and applications.
The aim is to provide the necessary
knowledge to take up employment in
composites (FRP) industry or enhance
knowledge, if already employed in this
industry.
Composites Industry, like information
technology, is a knowledge driven industry.
Hence acquiring the basic knowledge is
very essential to be effective in the industry
for making world-class products.
The training programme is intended to
cover the technology of fibre reinforced
plastics (FRP) product manufacture utilizing
various manufacturing processes.
It consists of lectures, practical work
and video demonstrations. The lecture
sessions are intended to give the basic
understanding of raw materials,
manufacturing methods, properties and
applications. Hand-lay up, sheet moulding
compounds, filament winding, pultrusion
and vacuum infusion processes will be
covered in the course.

FRP Institute, therefore, strongly
recommends to the composites industry
to depute newly recruited engineers to get
trained. This will certainly improve their
capability which will in turn help to
improve product quality and profitability
of the industry.

FRP Institute is a professional society

registered under Govt. of Tamil Nadu
Societies Act-1975. It has members from
all over India consisting of scientists,
composites specialists, fabricators, raw
material suppliers, consultants, designers,
educational institutions etc. The Institute
works in close collaboration with the
industries and institutions for upgrading the
Composites Technology and to promote the
growth of the Indian composites industry.
FRP Institute works with the following
three main objectives in-order to promote
the growth of industry:
i )Education & Training
ii) Technology Upgradation & Quality
iii) Industrial Growth & Export
