Armstong Group Limited (Armstrong) and High Temperature Material Systems Limited (HTMS) are delighted to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to develop next generation composite technologies.
Primarily focused on addressing thermal management challenges within the Automotive and Clean Transport sectors by combining Armstrong’s composite experience with the breakthrough in ceramic composite technology developed by HTMS.
The team’s first project has begun in the development of an EV battery box system which is lighter and has a greater thermal performance than the current market solutions.
Both businesses are proud to develop this new technology for the global market using British-based manufacturing facilities, design expertise and materials know how.
Dr. Danilo Di Salvo, HTMS CEO commented
“HTMS are extremely proud to be working with Armstrong, a company of such a rich history that their reputation within the UK and European automotive industry speaks for itself. From our first meeting it was clear that we share a common view that composites will play a major role in the electrification of the automotive industry. I look forward to continuing our work in developing and delivering a safer, lighter and lower CO2 battery box.”
Adam Grace, Armstrong Group Director stated
“This MoU is a forward-thinking move that reflects the growing importance of materials science in automotive innovation. It positions our companies to tackle future challenges like EV adoption, sustainability mandates, and customer demand for advanced performance."
