Bcomp Ltd

Bcomp makes its NASCAR debut 💥 NASCAR today revealed a first version of its all-new #ABB battery electric vehicle (BEV) prototype, featuring Bcomp’s flax-based composites in its bodywork, ahead of the Chicago Street Race. “This collaboration is Bcomp’s first major US motorsport project, and we are excited to demonstrate together with the NASCAR IMPACT team how racing can pave the way for sustainable innovations, enabling benefits for wider society further down the road,” said Johann Wacht, Key Account Manager Automotive & Motorsports at Bcomp. Bcomp’s innovative materials - #ampliTex and #powerRibs - offer a sustainable alternative to traditional carbon fibre, reducing CO₂ emissions by up to 85% at similar stiffness, and improve safety thanks to their breaking behaviour without sharp shattering - a critical factor for bumper-to-bumper racing.
