METYX Composites (Istanbul, Turkey) announced Oct 9 its Hungary factory, located in Kaposvár, has recently expanded its warehousing facilities, adding an additional 3,024 m2 (32,550 ft2) of fully enclosed storage space for composite technical fabrics, packaging and FRP tooling. The extended warehouse has two dedicated areas.
One section has racking for up to 1,300 tonnes of technical fabrics stock, including E-glass, carbon and hybrid multiaxial and woven reinforcements.
