Web Industries to showcase flight-critical precision composites formatting, protective insulation and soft goods manufacturing at SmallSat 2025

Highlights include precision thermoset and thermoplastic composite slitting, fly-away splicing, ply cutting & kitting, and unique protective insulation and soft goods solutions.

MARLBOROUGH, Mass. — August 6, 2025 — Engineering decision-makers at space launch companies seeking expert composite materials formatting or protective insulation and soft goods support will find solutions for their most challenging applications at Web Industries’ Small Satellite Conference Exhibition Booth 228, August 11 – 13, 2025, Salt Lake City.

Web’s composite materials formatting expertise includes the precision slitting and fly-away splicing of thermoset and thermoplastic composite materials for space and aerospace structural applications in launch vehicles, satellites and commercial or military aircraft. The company’s high-precision capabilities ensure commercial-scale repeatability and accuracy for seamless integration of high modulus fibers, brittle resin systems and other technically challenging materials.

Web’s protective insulation and soft goods solutions are custom-engineered to meet exact specifications and fit complex shapes with tight tolerances. These can include a near-limitless array of sewn-in or integrated features, such as gromets, attachment straps or grounding hardware, that improve performance while enabling fast and easy installation.

At the show, Web Industries’ employee-owners will address booth visitors’ application challenges associated with space and launch, next-generation satellites, lunar applications, commercial aviation, and military space and aerospace. Topics for discussion include 3D to 2D consulting and solutions for sewn soft goods, advanced materials, and ply cutting and kitting.

Web Industries is a global partner with leading space companies and has localized manufacturing in the U.S., France and Germany. The company recently had a second U.S. facility validated and qualified for finished part production for its largest space partner. As a result, Web is in hiring mode and educating new employees in advanced material formatting and manufacturing training.

“We are seeing high growth in the Space market for our precision formatting of soft goods, including complex assembly of protective insulation materials, as well as precision slitting and ply formatting of carbon fiber composites,” said Jason Surman, vice president of aerospace for Web Industries. “The pace of the market is pushing us to move faster, and we are adding resources and preparing expansion plans to meet the growth needed for soft goods materials for our space customers.”

Surman adds that Web now has two U.S.-based customer-qualified facilities manufacturing finished parts for leading space launch companies. The company’s qualified capacity supports customers’ aggressive launch cadences by expediting supply parts directly to the assembly area or launch pad.
