The RV-TIFAC Composite Design Centre is setting up
a FRP/ Composite Design Centre in its premises on a permanent basis
as a facility and service to the industry to exhibit newer and novel FRP/
Composite products for the benefit of the manufacturers and the end-users
of such products. The Display centre will also exhibit the products designed
and developed by the RV-TIFAC CDC.
The underlying idea behind this proposal is to bring
together under one roof selected products for the general public view,
especially for the view of composite scientists, engineers, moulders, entrepreneurs,
and users in various organizations to promote wider awareness and facilitate
increasing use of such products. This is the first time that such
a permanent FRP/ Composite products Display Centre is being set up in the
country. ADVANTAGES
OF DISPLAY CENTRE
Greater awareness
among the user communities about the various FRP/ Composite products being
manufactured and used in the country.
Better exposure
to the products on the display due to the large and continuous stream of
visitors from within the country and abroad as well as participaants in

in national and international exhibitions for still greater publicity.
An opportunity
for the product manufacturers - both indigenous and foreign - to evaluate
and compare the products on display with each other in terms of their materials
content, design features, tooling finishing etc., leading to better quality
improvement and production techniques.
Use of the
facilities and technical assistance of CDC to improve the quality in design,
tooling and production of the products on display for new products products
under development, if required.
