German Institute of Science & Technology (TUM) and Singapore Polytechnic (SP) signed MOU for composites research

The collaboration will provide industries within the Asia Pacific region, an opportunity in using fibre composite as a high performance material. It also aims to bring new processing technologies in fibre composites that are available in technologically advanced countries, like Germany, into the region.

The partnership between TUM Asia and SP will result in a sharing of knowledge and expertise, offering thought leadership to the industry, and act as a regional resource centre for the advancement of the fibre composite industry.
