nlcomp® is an Italian cleantech company specializing in the development of recyclable composite materials. Through its patented rComposite® technology, verified by DNV for ISO14021, the company addresses the significant environmental challenge of fiberglass waste by producing high-performance components that can be fully recycled at the end of their lifecycle.

Founded by passionate sailors, the company applies its expertise to several sectors, including renewable energy and industrial applications, but maintains a strong focus on the maritime industry. The technology allows for the creation of lightweight and durable structures, from racing yachts to foiling dinghies.

rFactory: industrial-scale circularity

The company operates rFactory, located in Monfalcone, Italy, which serves as the world’s first production facility dedicated to manufacturing large-scale composite components using sustainable materials. The facility is equipped to handle the production of high-performance parts up to 20 meters in length, supporting the industrialization of circular manufacturing processes.

By combining continuous research and development with environmentally responsible practices, nlcomp® provides the maritime sector with a viable alternative to traditional non-recyclable materials. This innovation enables the construction of a more sustainable sailboat or industrial component, driving the industry toward a circular economy without compromising on durability or performance.
