PENGUIN COMPOSITES
A Tasmanian company, Penguin Composites
has been designing, developing and
manufacturing innovative fibreglass and
metal products since 1976.
A fibreglass resin-transfer moulding
technique delivers quick manufacturing
turn-around and customisation for specific
customer requirements.
In collaboration with our clients, we design
and manufacture unique composite
products to meet individual needs,
whether they are for industrial, commercial,
recreational or marine applications.
Our capabilities include design and
engineering of moulds and plugs, fibreglass
and composite component manufacturing
and specialist composite product
manufacturing.
Diversity, experience and attention to detail
set Penguin Composites apart from our
competitors.
A complete “start to finish” service, with
seamless project functions, can eliminate
the need for external consultations or
outsourced components. This is hugely
advantageous in the current market, where
time and cost reductions are usually of
utmost importance.
Penguin Composites’ experience and
attention to detail delivers products that are
found in all kinds of conditions, including
Antarctica. We manufacture Igloo Satellite
Cabins exclusively for Icewall One, as
well as wall components used in Antarctic
bases. The wall components stack six
units per shipment and facilitate the rapid
construction of Antarctic buildings.
