LFT
Long Fiber Thermoplastic (LFT)
LFT is a long-fiber reinforced composite used in the production of a wide range of structural and semi-structural automotive parts. LFT with both direct and indirect fibers is widely applied in Europe. These materials allow molders to combine fibers with PP according to the requirements of injection or compression molding.
