Looking

for the benefits of advanced tooling?

Our unique slitting & formatting

capabilities will help you really take off.

Web Industries drives aerospace composites formatting forward as a global leader, pioneering precision slit tape for AFP and ATL.

Backed by the largest dedicated facilities and expert teams, we are seasoned partners who master slitting, formatting, kitting, and finishing of advanced composites—delivering unmatched precision and performance.

We turn AFP/ATL processes into production-grade advantages across defense, space, launch, and commercial sectors.

We speed adoption and boost value from AFP/ATL processes for defense, space and launch, and commercial applications.

We drive measurable results:

• Scale: Enabling high-volume and commercial-scale production

• Flexibility: Optimizing formats for multiple manufacturing processes

• Efficiency: Improving the buy-to-fly ratio

• Innovation: Supporting R&D, prototyping, and co-development

• Sustainability: Reducing material waste and enabling lighter, more efficient airframes

We have delivered over 11 billion linear feet of precision formatted material - proven and production ready

Expanding Possibilities in High-Precision Formatting of Advanced Materials

We consult with our customers to make sure you are ready to leverage the latest technologies to achieve your goals: shortening production cycles (e.g. by eliminating pre-production formatting), sustainably reducing material waste/scrap, maintaining or improving quality standards and performance, and enhancing profitability through modern manufacturing.

To do this, our global team of slitting and formatting experts, taps into our unequalled experience, facilities, certifications, and capabilities, including:

Unique PrecisionSlit™ technology

• Carbon fiber, glass fiber, thermoplastic tapes (PEEK, PAEK, PEKK, PPS), and hybrid rolls that combine composite and adhesive through a lamination process

• Multiple-width slitting in one pass (a Web exclusive)

• Ultra-narrow slitting to feed next-gen processes

• Extended range of slitting widths from 1-mm to 59-inch rolls

Proprietary ply-cutting processes and materials

• Pre-formatted materials for custom AFP, ATL, CCM, and hand lay-up manufacturing requirements

• Web’s proprietary BiasPly™ material: quasi-isotropic

• 50” rolls pre-oriented at 45° or 90°

• Laser/optical alignment technology meets stringent military specification and aerospace standards

Composite and Thermoplastic Composite Formatting

• We produce advanced technologies to slit, spool, chop, or pre-form thermoplastics to aerospace-quality levels and scale volumes for automated fabrication processes (AFPs).

• We match tape length, winding patterns, liner materials, and spool sizes to meet your specific manufacturing requirements, providing custom-formatted materials that streamline fabrication.

We meet the world’s aerospace and defense specifications: AS/EN9100C, NADCAP-certified, and more.
