Inspired by other public/private composites institutes across the globe, the founders of IACMI—The Composites Institute cast their vision in 2015: to move composites manufacturing forward and inspire new composites applications. Our mission is to accelerate the development and adoption of innovative composites manufacturing technologies. Our goal is to spur the growth of low-cost, energy efficient advanced composites applications. Our collaborative work through public-private partnerships drives domestic production capacity, strengthens U.S. manufacturing competitiveness, and elevates job creation across the U.S. composites industry.
IACMI was the first Manufacturing USA institute to receive renewed funding from the U.S. Department of Energy in 2023 for the next 5 years. We recognize the great value and untapped potential of composites to make our nation much more energy-efficient in nearly every sector of commercial activity.
