Offering Innovating Solutions to the Composite Industry

ATL Composites is a leader in advanced composite material solutions, engineering and manufacturing high-performance epoxy systems, structural adhesives, composite panels and finishing compounds built for strength, efficiency and reliability.

We support industries where structural performance matters — marine, defence, transportation, architecture, advanced manufacturing and renewable energy — helping fabricators build lighter, stronger and faster. 

The Future is Stronger with ATL Composites.

ATL Composites is dedicated to delivering consistently high-quality products and services to all customers. Every member of our team shares responsibility for maintaining our quality management system and driving continual improvement to ensure complete customer satisfaction.

For more than 45 years, ATL Composites has achieved steady growth across Australia and beyond. Strong international demand for our products has led to an established distribution network throughout Asia, the USA, and Europe, supporting our commitment to innovation, quality, and performance worldwide.

Our Journey

From Epoxy Formulation to Full-System Composite Engineering

Founded in New Zealand in 1977, ATL Composites began manufacturing WEST SYSTEM® epoxy for the Asia-Pacific region under licence to Gougeon Brothers Inc (USA). With strong adoption in the professional marine sector, ATL expanded into Australia in 1980, developing its own specialist laminating and adhesive systems.

In 1989, operations relocated to Queensland, where ATL now manufactures WEST SYSTEM® products alongside its own KINETIX®, TECHNIGLUE®, TECHNIFILL®, TECHNIREZ® and DuFLEX® product ranges.

What began as a niche marine supplier has evolved into a diversified composite technology manufacturer, powering industry across sea, land, structure and defence.

ATL — Engineering the future of composites.

Our Commitment

The future is stronger with ATL Composites.

We don’t just supply materials — we enable better manufacturing outcomes.
Australian-formulated, engineered and produced, ATL delivers proven composite systems designed to accelerate production, increase performance and unlock lighter, smarter structures.

Strong history. Stronger future — built together.

Quality Certification

The future is stronger with ATL Composites.

ATL Composites is proudly ISO 9001:2015 certified, reflecting our commitment to continuous improvement, process consistency, traceability, and customer satisfaction.

ATL is also a JOSCAR-AU registered supplier, independently assessed for quality systems, governance, financial stability, risk management, and supply-chain resilience in defence and safety-critical markets. This registration supports ATL’s role as a trusted, low-risk supplier to defence, infrastructure, and government programs.

In March 2023, ATL was re-certified by DNV — a globally recognised authority in composite compliance — under Approval #AMPM0000003M for the manufacture of fibre-reinforced plastics.

This certification covers:

  • Manufacture of composite panels, including CNC machining, joining, and bonding

  • Finishing processes for core materials — cutting, sealing, kitting, machining, bandsawing, sanding, scrimming, slitting, bonding, perforation, and grooving

Together, these accreditations recognise ATL’s commitment to quality assurance, traceability, and operational excellence across all production and supply-chain systems.

ATL – our systems are proven, our quality is verified, and our results are repeatable.

Quality Management Policy Statement

The future is stronger with ATL Composites.

ATL Composites operates under the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System (QMS), which governs the manufacture of composite panels and epoxy resins across our operations. This standard forms the foundation of our commitment to consistently producing high-quality products and delivering innovative solutions that meet the evolving demands of the composites industry and the expectations of our customers.

Our approach to quality is guided by our core values, which define the spirit of our business and the way we work every day:

Integrity | Quality | Accountability | Innovation

We believe that quality is a shared responsibility. Every member of ATL Composites plays an active role in maintaining and improving our Quality Management System through participation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Our management team leads by example — allocating resources, upholding high standards, and ensuring our quality principles are embedded across all operations. All personnel are encouraged to contribute to the design, implementation, and review of improvement initiatives to enhance product quality, efficiency, and customer satisfaction.

This policy applies to all ATL Composites facilities, supplier partnerships, and customer sites, ensuring consistency and compliance throughout every stage of our work.

VISION AND MISSION

We exist to push the boundaries of composite performance — and we engineer the solutions that make it possible
VISION – Engineering the future of composites — lighter, stronger, faster to build.

We strive to be the most trusted innovator in advanced composite solutions, delivering materials that push the boundaries of efficiency, sustainability and structural capability across the industries shaping tomorrow.

MISSION – To design and manufacture high-performance composite systems that enable better, faster and more efficient construction..

Through Australian manufacturing, deep chemistry expertise and engineered system integration, we deliver solutions that help builders and manufacturers produce lighter, stronger, and more durable composite structures — with confidence, precision and repeatability.

WHY ATL 

With Australian-made resin systems, structural adhesives, engineered panels and finishing compounds, ATL helps fabricators reduce labour, improve performance and streamline production from start to finish.
Total value without compromise.
Quality remains non-negotiable.
We build more than materials — we build confidence in your process.

Our Values

What we stand for

A commitment to excellence, responsibility & progress – engineered into everything we do.

Performance-Driven

We engineer materials that work — not just in theory, but in real-world manufacturing.


We validate, test and refine everything we make. Every product must achieve measurable performance, repeatable processing and long-term structural reliability.

We don’t just supply — we work alongside our customers.


We listen, problem solve, adapt and ensure the right material is used the right way. Progress is shared, success is mutual, and outcomes are stronger when we build them together.

Chemistry, engineering and experience define our difference.

With in-house chemists, process engineers and composite specialists, customers gain direct access to material knowledge, formulation science and advanced technical guidance.

We elevate industries by thinking beyond what exists today.


New resin systems, lighter structures, faster processes — we explore, trial and evolve to create smarter material solutions for tomorrow’s challenges.

Efficiency is a responsibility — and an opportunity.


We minimise waste through CNC kitting, long-life systems and material efficiency. Smart engineering is sustainable engineering.

We deliver total value — performance, reliability, speed and cost efficiency.


Through integrated material systems, engineered solutions and optimised processing, we help manufacturers achieve better outcomes without sacrificing quality.

Local manufacturing, global capability.


Formulated, produced and tested in Australia for responsive supply, consistent quality and sovereign manufacturing support.
