Composite materials for unparalleled performance.
Performance and reliability above all.
Relatively new to the world of cutlery, composite materials are generally designed for the advanced industry and intended for use in automotive, aerospace, marine, chemical, petrochemical or defence environments.
This means that these materials must be practical, robust and durable.
The principle of composite materials is the combination of at least two different materials which will not mix but each bring their properties to the new material thus formed to enhance its performance.
One of the best known is carbon fiber made of carbon fibre and resin, whose performance of strength and lightness makes it a material of choice for the manufacture of knife sleeves.
Colourful, robust composite materials and an exceptional look.
Several manufacturers inspired by materials for knife sleeves and other applications in the fields of art, jewellery or crafts in general, use composite materials in the creation of their products with an aesthetic that forces respect.
Eurotechni has partnered with the world's most famous manufacturers to offer you a wide range of sleeve materials and give free rein to your creativity.
You will like Fat Carbone for its colorful creations in carbon fiber mixed in an explosion of colors.
You will love the G10, an assembly of woven glass fiber and resin with superb coloured patterns.
You will judge the quality and similarity to misunderstand Elforyn® with elephant ivory, reproducing to such characteristic Schreger lines.
And many more!
Composite materials that don't forget the planet.
The quality, performance and aesthetics of composite materials can also contribute to the protection of the planet and show us that high technology and nature can also do well.
Elforyn participates in the protection of elephants, walruses and other animals carrying ivory defences.
PaperStone® products recycle paper and cardboard by being certified according to the standards of the American Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) for forest protection.

Many composite materials come from recycled materials or contribute in their own way to the sustainable protection of the planet.
Composite materials, a wide choice of formats and appearances.
Composite materials are available in as many materials, dimensions, nuances and textures as imagination allows. Everything suitable for cutlery, the composite materials offered by Eurotechni guarantee solidity, ease of work, and above all, undeniable aesthetic qualities.
