Centexbel’s Textiles and Composites Platform is a cutting-edge innovation hub equipped with semi-industrial and industrial-scale machinery, supporting the development of advanced textile structures and industrial prototypes.

  • Our wide range of textile processes includes warp and weft knitting, embroidery, weaving and braiding - compatible with both natural fibres (cotton, linen, hemp, wool) and high-performance synthetics (polyester, polypropylene, carbon fibre, basalt fibre, glass fibre, and more).
  • Beyond textiles, we produce composite structures through vacuum injection moulding (Light RTM), enabling the integration of complex textile substrates into strong, lightweight composites of various forms.
  • The platform also features a fully customisable electrospinning system, designed to work with all types of polymers for highly specialised applications.

Created as a centre for technological innovation, our platform is open to companies eager to develop high-quality, next-generation materials across sectors such as aerospace, automotive, energy, and healthcare.
