PRODUCT FORMS
Kurabo offers products in forms that correspond to various molding technologies through the development of its unique production facilities to handle unprecedented soft materials.
FEATURES
While the world searches for sustainable paths as it faces the realities of climate change, Kurabo aims to balance costs and environmental sustainability with weight-saving technology. When thermoplastic resin is compared to thermosetting resin, there are advantages that parts can be produced not in several hours but in several minutes and product costs can be reduced significantly as cycle times are shortened and automation levels are improved.

Remarkably cut processes!
FEATURES 02
High drapability
(high shapability)
The main feature of Kurapower sheet is its high drapability. This feature makes it possible to produce complex shapes hollow parts, deep drawings parts and complex shapes parts!
Irregularly-formed hollow molding
Small-diameter hollow molding
Integral molding of multiple shapes
FEATURES 03
Low-pressure molding
Since Kura Power Sheet can be molded at low pressure, large molded products can be produced with reduced capital investment!
PARTNERSHIP
In order to quickly respond to rapidly evolving environments, there is a need for a reliable network of leading suppliers. Taking advantage of this unique material that is soft and can be molded at low pressure, Kurabo continues to build partnerships worldwide with customers, design makers, equipment manufacturers, molding manufacturers, and research institutions in order to develop new levels of advanced thermoplastic composite products.
