Our panels provide the ideal foundation for modern container solutions – robust, lightweight and highly versatile. Whether for transport containers, military applications, tiny houses, sanitary units or mobile command units, their high structural stability and weather resistance ensure reliable performance even under the most demanding conditions.
The low weight simplifies transport and installation, while excellent insulation properties and resistance to moisture and temperature fluctuations ensure maximum comfort and long service life.
Thanks to their flexible processing, our panels enable customized designs and open up new perspectives for sustainable, mobile and modular construction concepts.
By using PU or PET foam cores.
Sustainability is part of our DNA.
We focus on resource-efficient alternatives, already use 95% renewable energy (Scope 1 & 2), develop recyclable mono-material composite elements, and continuously increase the share of recycled materials in our products.
They are up to 70% lighter, corrosion-free and rot-resistant, low-maintenance, and offer excellent bending and compressive stiffness.
Yes. We keep TOP-lite and TOP-air GRP white in stock in the format 4,500 × 2,450 × 25 mm.
However, over 95% of our products are manufactured individually according to customer requirements.
Yes, GRP surfaces can be both sprayed and vinyl wrapped.
Yes. The panels can be easily cut, drilled, milled, riveted or bonded.
Depending on the requirements, we use hot-melt PU adhesive systems, two-component PU adhesives, or directly weld thermoplastic products together.
Yes. Our specially developed mono-material elements made of welded thermoplastics (TOP-lite PP, TOP-air PP) are 100% recyclable.
Yes. TOP-air antislip provides a durable, moisture-resistant alternative that reduces weight by approximately 50–60%, depending on the panel thickness.
Yes. Thanks to our extensive service facilities, we also supply elements ready to install.
Wide-band metal sheets from 1,500 mm width are available in any RAL colour starting from 500 linear meters. Narrow-band metal sheets are available in many colours, also in smaller quantities.
The elements should be stored flat on pallets in an indoor storage area. High point loads must be avoided.
Yes. Inserts such as wood, aluminum profiles, PVC or PET rigid foam can be integrated. Custom formats and special cut-outs are produced using our CNC machining centers.
Yes, repairs are generally possible. Suitable repair instructions can be requested directly from Design Composite.
No. We specialize in the production of smart lightweight elements and supply them to the construction and vehicle industries.
No. Most projects use customer-owned profiles, and a broad selection of standard profile solutions in different thicknesses is available on the market.
For transport, sanitary and tiny house containers, TOP-lite PET with GRP face sheets is commonly used. In military applications, TOP-lite PET with aluminum face sheets is particularly popular.
The location of our company inspires the entire team every day to actively contribute to reducing environmental pollution. Surrounded by unspoiled mountains and meadows, design composite relied on state-of-the-art ecological construction methods when building its new production facility in the Salzburg region of Pinzgau.
The measures implemented have resulted in a positive energy balance and enabled the sustainable reduction of a calculated CO₂ emission equivalent of 140 tons per year.
For us, sustainability is more than a goal – it is an integral part of our corporate strategy.
Through innovative technologies, a responsible supply chain, and a clear ESG focus, we develop sustainable solutions that meet the requirements of tomorrow.
