FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam – [14 August 2025] – Triac Composites, an internationally owned manufacturer of advanced composite solutions, will exhibit at the world’s largest marine equipment trade show, METSTRADE 2025, from 18–20 November 2025 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. (See Triac's entry on the Official METSTRADE Website here.)

Foiling Technology Zone

Located in the Foiling Technology Zone, Triac will present its globally recognised expertise in the design and manufacture of high-performance composite components, including C foils (asymmetrical), daggerboards, rudder blades, masts, beams, struts and bulkheads.

With a proven track record in building lightweight vessels (see Rapido Trimarans) and precision-engineered components for performance sailing, Triac is uniquely positioned to meet the fast-growing demands of the foiling sector.

Why Foiling Needs Triac’s Expertise

Foiling technology thrives on precision and minimal weight; every gram matters when it comes to lift, speed, and efficiency.

Triac’s advanced composite manufacturing techniques, include using prepreg carbon fibre which is cured in the autoclave. It delivers strength, stiffness, and weight optimisation that’s critical for peak foiling performance.

"Whether it’s a high-aspect C foil for a racing / performance multihull, a lightweight mast for a monohull, or a structural beam for electric foiling ferries, Triac has the experience and capacity to deliver world-class results," said Paul Koch, General Director at Triac Composites.

"With electric propulsion and battery manufacturers increasingly targeting the foiling sector, the need for lightweight, efficient platforms has never been greater. This is exactly where Triac shines."
