Increased load capacity and fuel efficiency is a direct result of the use of composite materials in the transport industry. Transport of the future is required to be lighter, stronger and more durable than ever. Composites are setting new standards within design, development and strength. Composite bus panels, moulded by Hi – Spec Plastics Ltd reduce environmental impact even before they hit the road. That's because they are produced in a closed mould system that create fewer emissions than the open mould systems more commonly used. In operation, the composite buses, whose bodies weigh 25 percent less than steel bodies, consume 10 percent less fuel, resulting in 10% less exhaust.
