Materials specialist Nandina REM has started production in its new carbon fiber manufacturing facility in Singapore. At the Singapore Airshow this week, the local company is also launching its Salis operation, which makes industrial and commercial fabrics from recycled textiles.

According to Nandina REM, it is the only company in Southeast Asia that can produce carbon fiber to aerospace- and defense-grade standards and the first facility of its type in Singapore. The operation at the Tai Seng Exchange can make up to five tonnes (11,000 pounds) of fiber each month to support production of between 120 and 8,000 drones, depending on their size.
