Engineering New Zealand East Coast Branch is pleased to invite members to a special site visit to Pultron Composites, headquartered in Gisborne at 342 Lytton Road. Pultron develops and manufactures glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites using the pultrusion process and has built a strong international reputation for innovation, quality and practical engineering solutions.
During this visit, attendees will gain insight into the pultrusion manufacturing process, Pultron’s product development journey, and the engineering advantages of GFRP composites compared with traditional materials such as steel, timber and aluminium. Pultron highlights benefits including durability, corrosion resistance, lightweight performance and long-term value, making this especially relevant for engineers involved in asset management, infrastructure design, water, and resilience planning.
This event will be valuable for engineers, technical professionals, students, and anyone interested in manufacturing, materials innovation, and seeing a world-class engineering business operating from Tairāwhiti Gisborne. It will also be a great chance to connect with fellow members and celebrate local engineering success with global reach.
