The UP-tex Cluster is an association of companies, research and tech transfer centres that have been approved as a Competition Cluster by the French State. By 2015, the Cluster's aim is to become a European benchmark in the field of Advanced Textile Materials, Polysensoriality, Design and Mass Customisation.
The Cluster's goal is to federate the best competencies for preparing and optimising projects, place textiles at the heart of the materials of tomorrow through innovative applications, speed up the development of markets and activities linked to Advanced Textile Materials, foster the development of innovation at scientific, technological and industrial levels.

+Composites brings the latest technologies to SME's, allowing them to enter new composites market.
SME's will benefit from the skills and resources of a European consortium made up of technology platforms and regional economic development institutions.
+Composites offers direct access to a technical knowledge and business opportunities network.
It gives SME's access to composite technologies and helps to enter new markets: machine tools, aeronautic, railways, leasure, sport, health,...
+Composites helps SME's to take a technological jump, regardless of wether the company is a newcomer or highly skilled in composites.

+Composites is an INTERREG IV B NWE funded program.

It aims to reinforce innovation and technology transfer amongst companies in composites materials and contributes to increase the competitiveness of SME's in North West Europe.

Procotex is a leading producer/exporter of flax fibers and recycled synthetic/natural fibers (such as PP, PS, AC, CO, Jute, Kennaf, Cocos, blends,...). Today Procotex is providing her great knowledge of hackling long flax fibers to produce UD prepregs in flax for applications in the high end composite industry. These UD-prepregs have exceptional strong characteristics such as:
Green by nature. 100% renewable raw material. Sustainable/Recyclable/Biodegradable/Compostable. High strength and stiffness. Light weight/weight savings. Low density vs. Glass fiber and other composite fibers. High vibration absorption. Good thermal and acoustic insulation. Lower environmental impact. Ecological benefits. Low abrasion.
To resume : Materials for a low carbon future! We can develop for you prepregs in flax in combination with thermoplast (PP) or thermoset resins.
