ElectriPlast is a patented line of non-corrosive,
electrically conductive resin-based materials engineered
to replace traditional metals such as steel or aluminum.
Typically used for electrical and magnetic shielding
applications in industries such as automotive,
aerospace, consumer electronics, cable and alternative
energy, ElectriPlast can be molded into any of the
infinite shapes and sizes associated with plastics,
rubbers and other polymers while reducing component
weight by 40 to 60%.
"The GT4 represents a historic milestone in aviation and
defines the next generation of private aircraft," states
Herbert Reedman, CEO of ElectriPlast. "Innovation, drive
and desire for advanced, next-generation technologies is
what drives our two companies. We look forward to
working with Volta Volare' to develop lightweighting
solutions which incorporate ElectriPlast conductive
resin technologies for use in aviation."
Volta Volare' Corp. is a private aircraft manufacturer
and emerging leader in hybrid electric aviation
technology. Their EViation Drive System is the world's
first and only hybrid-electric drive system in the field
of aviation. The EViation Drive powers the carbon
composite 4-seat GT4 aircraft with exceptional speed,
safety and range, with a spacious and near-silent cabin
and at the lowest operating cost of any aircraft in its
class.
