Lantor Coremat®
Lantor Coremat®
Invented by Lantor in 1974, Coremat® has been the standard in the industry ever since. Coremat® is the original laminatebulker in open mold processes like hand lay up (HLU) and spray up (SU). For HLU and SU it is important that the product wets out quickly but also remains intact long enough to be processed. The product needs to be flexible to conform to the shape of the mold.
Coremat® is made by incorporating microspheres in a polyester based fleece. Because of these microspheres, Coremat® creates a low weight volume and increases stiffness without the extensive use of costly materials.
Lantor Coremat® Xi
Coremat® Xi is made with a styrene dissolvable binder and has a blue resin indicator. Because the binder dissolves in styrene containing resin it is very easily applicable into sharp corners.
- The cost effective solution for open mould processes
- Is used as core material and/or print blocker
- Is a polyester nonwoven and compatible with all regular types of resins, including Polyester, Vinylester, Phenolic and Epoxy
- Is suitable for hand lay-up and spray-up processes
- Styrene dissolvable binder
- Blue resin indicator
- Allows to be applied in sharp corners
- 1.4 – 5mm thick
Lantor Coremat Xi Applications
- Marine: hulls, decks and structures of boats and yachts
- Transportation: parts and panels of cars, trailers and trucks
- Mass transit: interior and exterior of trains, light rail and buses
- Leisure: kayaks, surfboards, pools and tubs
- Industrial: cladding panels, containers and tanks

Please note
Keep Coremat® Xi away from direct sunlight, therefore store Coremat® Xi in the original bag. This will ensure proper functioning of the resin indicator. Please note that the resin indicator is not a guarantee that sufficient resin has been applied, but strictly a control mechanism to identify dry spots. Always check resin content.
