Triac Composites built superstructures and bench seats for three 24m ferries for a Scandinavian customer.

The third and final container with the panels and bench seats was shipped from Triac Composites' HCMC factory earlier this week on 7 October 2019.

The customer required the superstructure to be made from composite materials to:

• Significantly reduce weight (for improved fuel efficiency and engine performance); and

• Significantly reduce maintenance costs

Triac Composites was able to ship the containers three weeks ahead of schedule.

Composite superstructure for vessel operating in shallow river?

Meanwhile, discussions with a company that runs extended river cruises regarding a superstructure for their 50m cruise ship which they will build in 2020. The issue they face is that the river they operate on is very shallow. having a composite superstructure will significantly reduce the weight and therefore the draft of the vessel in the shallow river.
