ACC to ACE - What's in a Name? Quite a lot really!

The trading name of ACG's hardware division, Advanced Composite Components (ACC), has been in existence now for approaching 20 years, but things are about to change. In future ACC will become known as ACE (Advanced Composites Engineering). The reasons for the name change are simple, but quite significant for both ACG staff and ACG customers.

The two most important factors behind the move from ACC to ACE are organisational changes that see the Group's Applied Technologies and Design functions assimilated into what was the existing ACC structure. The inclusion of these two key customer support functions will mean an increased emphasis on the new ACE's ability to offer "turn-key" technology solutions to the Group's materials customer base, supporting a vast range of development programmes from design, through project management, to production.

The clear remit of ACE is to support, develop and promote Advanced Composite Group's novel materials and technologies across the globe - and to ensure the company's products are always employed to the optimum technical and commercial benefit of the customer.
