Discover our Protection & Structure expertise

At Hutchinson, we design materials that deliver robust, high performance in extreme temperatures and conditions, improving acoustics, aerodynamics, fire resistance, and mechanical properties.  


Major aerospace firms rely on our innovations to reduce cabin noise, provide fire resistance up to 1,100°C and deliver main airplane sub-structures, while enhancing passenger safety and comfort. Our solutions for the energies industry include Hutchinson Triplex®, used on LNG tanks to provide a secondary barrier resistant to dynamic fatigue and mechanical stress at -160°C. All materials are formulated using extensive in-house simulation and testing facilities, analyzing acoustics, fire, mechanical and chemical. For the defense industry, Hutchinson offers a wide range of solutions to guarantee the protection of teams and equipment.

  

Hutchinson has also built on its expertise to develop materials to protect against thermal runaway propagation in Li-ion battery packs. Two families of solutions have been specifically developed: Blast Shields/Heat Shields and Intercell Compression Pads.
