It would boost the Unit’s manufacturing and testing capabilities in Composites, a new area which has been identified by BEL for diversification.
The Unit will use the facility to carry out inhouse designing and manufacturing of components using GFRP (Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer) and CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) Composites for various Naval applications, submarines, aircraft and shelters.
