ATL’s manufacturing facility operates under an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system and is certified by DNV for the manufacture of fibre-reinforced plastic products.
To complement our in-house technologies, ATL partners with leading global suppliers including DIAB Divinycell® and ProBalsa® core materials, COOSA® composite boards, Duratec® surfacing products, Scott Bader® resins, Airtech® vacuum and infusion consumables, and EPIFANES® marine coatings — providing a comprehensive materials solution for marine construction and repair.
With more than four decades of composite innovation, ATL Composites delivers integrated marine manufacturing and finishing solutions that streamline production, reduce waste and ensure precision from concept through to completion.
Supplying the Marine Industry for over 45 years
For more than 45 years, ATL has been part of Australia’s marine DNA — supporting the construction of iconic racing yachts, performance multihulls, defence vessels, and commercial craft. Our deep technical heritage and commitment to continuous innovation allow us to deliver composite systems you can trust, backed by real-world experience across thousands of builds.
By combining proven materials with hands-on engineering support, ATL helps marine professionals create lighter, faster, and longer-lasting vessels built to thrive in demanding ocean environments.
Developed specifically for demanding marine environments, WEST SYSTEM® epoxies deliver proven strength, durability, and moisture resistance. Manufactured by ATL Composites under licence from Gougeon Brothers Inc. for the Asia-Pacific region, the WEST SYSTEM® range represents more than 50 years of epoxy innovation.
Suitable for construction and repair across timber, fibreglass, aluminium, steel, and composite structures, the WEST SYSTEM® range provides dependable adhesion and long-term durability in all marine environments.
KINETIX® laminating epoxies are purpose-engineered for high-performance fibreglass, aramid, and carbon fibre marine structures. Each resin–hardener combination delivers predictable processing with tailored working times, viscosities, and wet-out characteristics — giving boatbuilders the control, strength, and consistency required for both production builds and advanced custom composites.
TECHNIFILL® marine fairing and filling compounds deliver lightweight, high-build performance with excellent sandability and minimal shrinkage. Designed for fast, reliable finishing on hulls and composite structures, TECHNIFILL® provides smooth, stable surfaces that withstand harsh marine environments and support premium paint systems.
TECHNIGLUE® structural adhesives provide reliable, high-strength bonding for critical marine assemblies, including hull-to-deck joints, bulkheads, stringers, and composite connections. Formulated for outstanding peel strength, durability, and gap-filling performance, TECHNIGLUE® ensures long-lasting structural integrity and simplifies fabrication across timber, composite, and metal substrates.
DuFLEX® Composite Panels set the benchmark for lightweight marine construction, offering outstanding stiffness-to-weight performance and precise laminate quality. Engineered for hulls, decks, and structural components, DuFLEX® reduces build time, improves accuracy, and delivers reliable strength and durability across all vessel types.
