Back then, we were only selling fiberglass; we’re now selling a variety of different products. We changed our name in 2011 to Northern Composites because it better reflected what we did; we weren’t just a fiberglass sales agent, anymore.” In fact, today, with a complement of 26 full-time people, the company’s products include: Process Materials, Adhesives, Prepegs (“pre-impregnated” composite fibers where a thermoset polymer matrix material, such as epoxy, or a thermoplastic resin is already AT A GLANCE NORTHERN COMPOSITES WHAT: A distributor of premium quality composite materials WHERE: Hampton, New Hampshire WEBSITE: www.northerncomposites.com
