In boatbuilding, fibreglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) construction remains the standard for creating lightweight, durable, and water-resistant vessels. At Sharon NZ Limited, we provide marine-grade chopped strand mats (CSM) and polyester resin systems optimized for hulls, decks, and structural components.

Our materials are engineered to support:

• Monohull and multihull vessels, dinghies, and personal watercraft

• Deck panels, transoms, bulkheads, and internal fittings

• Tooling molds for marine parts fabrication

We also offer specialty marine-grade adhesives under our Epoxite range, ideal for panel bonding, internal joinery, and structural assembly of FRP components.

Using orthophthalic, isophthalic, terephthalic, and vinyl ester resins, combined with fibreglass layers, our systems deliver:

• Excellent water resistance and osmosis protection

• Strong adhesion and wet-out with minimal air entrapment

• Even curing and reduced tackiness for consistent lamination

• Compatibility with wet lay-up, vacuum infusion, and hand lay-up methods

Colouring systems can also be supplied for gelcoats and resin pigmentation, ensuring aesthetic quality alongside performance.

Whether for professional shipyards or custom builds, our FRP solutions enable superior craftsmanship, long-term performance, and reliability in harsh marine environments.

Fibre-reinforced plastics (FRPs) using fibreglass mats and polyester resins are widely adopted in the automotive industry for lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant parts. Sharon NZ Limited supplies FRP-grade reinforcements and resin systems ideal for:

• Exterior components: bumpers, hoods, fenders, side skirts

• Interior panels: dashboards, trunk linings, and door trims

• Structural supports: battery enclosures, composite reinforcements
  
  

Our orthophthalic or isophthalic resins, combined with chopped strand mats or woven rovings, provide:

• Excellent surface finish and paint adhesion

• Enhanced impact resistance and dimensional stability

• Fast wet-out and uniform curing without post-lamination tackiness
  
  

These materials are optimized for hand lay-up, spray-up, and vacuum infusion, making them suitable for both OEM production and aftermarket part fabrication.

Whether for passenger vehicles, utility trucks, or specialty builds, our FRP systems ensure high-performance, cost-effective solutions that meet industry standards.

The aerospace industry demands materials that are lightweight, structurally reliable, and resistant to environmental stress. Fibreglass-reinforced plastics (FRPs), when combined with high-performance polyester resins, provide an economical and efficient solution for non-critical structural and interior components.

Sharon NZ Limited offers fibreglass fabrics, chopped strand mats, and precision-grade resin systems engineered for:

• Interior panels, fairings, and access covers

• Non-load-bearing aerodynamic components

• Molds and tooling for aircraft part fabrication
  
  

Our orthophthalic and isophthalic polyester resins offer:

• Excellent adhesion to fibreglass for multi-layer layups

• Consistent wet-out and uniform resin distribution for optimal curing

• Low shrinkage and high dimensional stability

• Compatibility with vacuum bagging, hand lay-up, and spray-up techniques
  
  

Designed for use in controlled, high-precision environments, our FRP systems support repeatable manufacturing while delivering long-term resistance to vibration, temperature changes, and air humidity, all critical for aerospace interiors and composite shells.

Sharon NZ’s FRP solutions help meet aerospace manufacturing demands where weight, cost-efficiency, and process reliability are key.
