FAC Technology has designed a new lightweight composite sandwich panel for aerospace cargo pallets. The base panel component is around 50% lighter than conventional 7000 series, aerospace aluminium, sheets. This project has three outcomes:a) To commercialise a disruptive material technology which has been developed entirely in the UK. This project will transform a small London based R&D business into a profitable international company.b) To expand the UK's composite materials supply chain to enter a new market. The UK currently has no manufacturing presence in the air cargo container and pallet marketc) To provide a technology that will help the UK's climate pledge of reducing net carbon emissions to zero by 2050FACT have already developed a composite sandwich panel for the base sheet of an air cargo container. It has been aerospace certified and licensed to the world-leading manufacturer of air cargo products. The company would now like to use the knowledge and experience learnt from its first product to develop a second product, exclusively marketed under FACT instead of licensing the intellectual property to a foreign partner. This loan will enable this to happen.

FAC科技设计了一种用于航空航天货运托盘的新型轻质复合材料夹芯板。底板组件比传统的7000系列航空航天铝板轻约50%。该项目有三个成果：a)将一种完全在英国开发的颠覆性材料技术商业化。该项目将把一家总部位于伦敦的小型研发企业转变为一家盈利的国际公司。b)扩大英国的复合材料供应链，进入一个新的市场。英国目前在航空货运集装箱和托盘市场没有制造工厂)，以提供一种技术，帮助英国实现到2050年将净碳排放减少到零的气候承诺，FACT已经开发出一种用于航空货运集装箱底板的复合夹芯板。它已获得航空航天认证，并授权给世界领先的航空货运产品制造商。该公司现在希望利用从第一个产品中学到的知识和经验，开发第二个产品，专门根据事实销售，而不是将知识产权授权给外国合作伙伴。这笔贷款将使这种情况发生。
