Delta Preg and Automobili Lamborghini: Advancing Carbon-Fiber Excellence for High Performance Cars

Overview

In high-performance automotive manufacturing, carbon fiber is far more than a lightweight material. It represents engineering precision, visual identity, and the pursuit of excellence in every detail.
With 25 years of experience in advanced composites, DeltaPreg, part of the Toray Group, supports Automobili Lamborghini by supplying carbon-fiber composite solutions developed to meet demanding requirements in both structural and aesthetic applications.

This collaboration reflects a shared ambition: enabling outstanding performance while preserving the distinctive design standards expected in the world of super cars.

The Challenge: Performance Without Compromise

Modern high-end vehicles require materials that can deliver a consistent balance between:

• Lightweight construction and structural stability
• Premium surface appearance and long-term visual integrity
• Manufacturing reliability, even on complex geometries
• Durability, including applications exposed to elevated temperatures and demanding operating environments

DeltaPreg’s Approach: Materials Designed for Performance and Visual Integrity

DeltaPreg contributes to this challenge through composite systems
engineered to support both technical and aesthetic performance. The
selected solutions are designed to promote long-term surface quality and
visual consistency, including applications where design requirements
demand clear, uniform carbon appearance over time.

Key characteristics include high optical clarity, UV resistance, and gloss
retention, enabling premium finishes that remain stable throughout the
lifecycle of the component. At the same time, DeltaPreg focuses on
processing behavior and material consistency—ensuring high-quality results
that meet demanding automotive expectations.

Manufacturing Versatility: Autoclave and Press Molding Compatibility

A core strength of DeltaPreg’s contribution is its ability to support different production routes. The supplied systems are compatible with both autoclave curing and press molding, enabling manufacturers to balance performance requirements, productivity targets, and industrial constraints without compromising final quality.

This processing flexibility supports a wide range of component needs, helping translate bold design concepts into reliable, repeatable manufacturing outcomes.
