About This Webinar
Composite materials offer a wealth of benefits compared to legacy materials in industrial and infrastructure applications. Additionally, stitch-bonded non-crimp fabrics (NCFs) provide manufacturers and asset owners even more ways to gain a competitive advantage with products built specifically for the environments and loading conditions in which they will be utilized.

Join Vectorply Corporation and Creative Composites Group (CCG) for this in-depth webinar detailing the process of engineering NCFs to build composite parts that will stand the test of time. Unlike steel, concrete and wood, composite NCFs can be optimized utilizing various fiber types, architectures and substrates to achieve the specific goals of their application efficiently. High corrosion resistance, strength and stiffness, and longevity can all be accomplished with custom-designed laminates for these heavily abused applications.

Vectorply Vice President of Engineering Trevor Gundberg and Creative Composites Group Chief Sales Officer Dustin Troutman will share their industry-leading expertise on the process of laminate design and part production. Attendees can expect to learn when to use composite NCFs in their production process and the wide range of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) composites that Creative Composites Group produces for the industrial and infrastructure markets. Whether you want to learn more about utilizing NCFs in your production process or why CCG’s extensive product line may be the choice for your project, this webinar is the place learn the process and how to take the next steps.

    Dustin Troutman
    Chief Sales Officer, Creative Composites Group
    Dustin Troutman received his bachelor's degree in civil engineering from the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown in 1993. Currently, he serves as the chief sales officer for the Creative Composites Group.

    During his 29 years with CCG, Troutman has been instrumental in the market investigation development and sales of major pultrusion products and product lines associated with infrastructure applications. He continues to be a key player in the development of codes and standards in support of the fiberglass reinforced polymer pultrusion industry. Mr. Troutman is a co-inventor holding six patents related to pultruded systems.

    Troutman is a member of professional associations, including ASCE, ANSI and ASTM. He is a past president of the Pultrusion Industry Council and is currently the chair of the utility and communication structures committee. He was also a member of the project advisory committee (PAC), charged with developing the ASCE/LRFD standard for pultruded structural profiles.
