Founded in 2016, Boston Materials is a high-performance materials company that enables manufacturers of industrial and consumer products to break through their design trade-offs with new materials.
The company's patented Z-axis Fiber™ is a lightweight material that has an extraordinary ability to diffuse energy (thermal, electrical, structural). It is produced from reclaimed carbon fiber, enabling new, high-volume, energy-efficient products that have a low carbon footprint. Key applications include vehicle lightweighting and electronics thermal management.
By turning a $2B per year waste stream into high-value, advanced materials, Boston Materials is enabling the next generation of products and unlocking a circular economy.
Boston Materials produces a new class of materials that are conductive and durable like metal, yet light like plastic. The underlying technology revolves around vertically aligning carbon fibers to create materials with highly efficient energy dissipation properties. We use these highly differentiated materials to solve critical challenges relating to thermal management, vehicle weight reduction, and improving resource efficiency across Semiconductor, Electrified Vehicles, and Aerospace industries. Backed by proven manufacturing processes and validation in performance-critical applications across high-growth sectors, industry leaders turn to Boston Materials to go beyond today’s known limitations.
