Innovative Composite Solutions (ICS LLC)

Engineering design & prototyping of lightweight, high-performance fiber reinforced composite parts and components that replace metals. Metals are heavy, can corrode and require frequent replacement. Most traditional composite applications are limited to unreinforced polymers (without fiber) or use very common resins such as polyester or epoxy and specialize in the very low-end commodity goods. The Indian market has significant potential for composite materials parts, components and structures in the above listed sectors. The manufacture of cost-effective, high-performance parts requires extensive integrated design-materials-processing experience and knowledge. ICS specializes in components that have been targeted for manufacture, are highly complex and require an iterative approach, which has already been established.

• Lightweight design –easy to transport, many poles can be lifted and hand carried into hard-to-reach locations
• Ease of installation –composite poles can be directly buried into most any soil, which eliminates both the time and the cost of concrete foundations
