Material options
Woven fiberglass and specialty composite reinforcement fabrics.
Industrial
Advanced fiberglass reinforcements and specialty materials for demanding industrial applications.
Reinforcements for industrial manufacturing
JPS supplies fiberglass and specialty reinforcements for power equipment, marine construction, coated materials, and electronics. Fabric construction and surface chemistry are selected for the downstream process. The portfolio combines woven glass with para-aramid options for customers balancing strength, insulation, and weight in demanding industrial components, including structural laminates and electrical equipment.
Industrial material capabilities
Coating compatibility
Finish development for films, foils, silicones, and thermoplastic materials.
Power equipment
Low-thickness glass reinforcement for mica-backed motor and generator tapes.
Marine structures
Fiberglass for vessel hulls, bulkheads, decking, and insulation.
Industrial applications
Electrical equipment
Woven E-glass reinforces insulating components in generators, transformers, switches, and cables. Fabric thickness, construction, and finish are matched to the equipment and processing requirements.
Coated fabrics and insulation
Finishes can support mica systems, ceramic coatings, rubber, and silicone, with custom chemistries for specific bonding requirements.
- Film and foil reinforcement
- Thermoplastic coatings
- Industrial insulation systems
Para-aramid reinforcement
Kevlar® and Twaron® fabrics offer low-weight reinforcement for industrial composite designs. JPS can review the construction and finish against the component requirements.
Which fabrics go where
Glass fabric in electrical equipment
Woven glass reinforces insulating components in generators, transformers, switches, and cables. Construction and finish support the mechanical, electrical, and processing needs of the equipment.
Substrates for coatings, films, and foils
Fine woven glass acts as the reinforcing base within coated materials and bonded laminates. Finish chemistry is matched to mica, silicone, rubber, or the customer’s coating and bonding process.
Specialty fabrics for the process
Custom constructions and finishing options support industrial composite and coated-fabric requirements when a standard glass construction needs adaptation.
