Aerospace
JPS engineers have taken advanced composites to new heights of performance with their exclusive line or Astroquartz® fiber products. Made from high purity (99.99% SiO2) quartz crystals, the aerospace industry relies on Astroquartz as an outstanding reinforcement for high temperature and ablative space and missile applications. Aerospace and military engineers have also found that Astroquartz products are a superior solution when low dielectric loss properties are required, such as microwave transmission in radome and antenna applications, as well as other applications including insulation for the space shuttle, cable tray insulation for nuclear power plants and laminated fabric for circuit boards

Construction
Over the years, JPS Composite Materials has built a foundation of innovative products for the construction industry. In fact, we were the first to introduce EIFS to North America. Today, we are the largest manufacturer of fiberglass reinforcing mesh in the country and produce millions of square feet every year. As a member and supporter of EIMA, we have helped establish rigorous standards and JPS products are known for their compliance to these standards, as well as their superior durability, longevity and reliability.

Additionally, JPS Composite Materials’ engineers have leveraged expertise in construction composites to produce a wide range of open-weave scrim products for an even wider range of industries. While common applications for scrim materials include carpet backing or wall tapes, JPS is committed to supplying new solutions tailored to your individual needs. We offer a multitude of different finish options to ensure that each solution best meets your specific application.
