EPSRC Future Composites Manufacturing Research Hub Release Research Challenge Landscape – Composites Sustainability Report

Published: 29th March 2023

The EPSRC Future Composites Manufacturing Research Hub is a key player in funding fundamental composites manufacturing research in the UK. The Hub Sustainability Workshop series aim to develop a process for identifying and validating fundamental research challenges for composite manufacturing to be addressed within the next ten years. This will enable the Hub and the broader composites community to remain current with research trends and fund the most critical and timely research. It is envisaged that the data collected, and the analysis contained herein will play a key role in:

• Informing future funding decisions and shape calls for Hub Feasibility Studies

• Ensuring that Hub research themes remain relevant

• Identification of areas of research synergy between technology areas and Hub projects

• Underpinning knowledge & technology transfer into the High Value Manufacturing Catapult (HVMC) Centres Justification of resource needs for research projects
