About
nlcomp is an innovative startup that deals with research and development of natural fibres, recycled materials and innovative resins for the construction of sailing boats. The young start-up was born as a spin-off of Northern Light Sailing Team - a group of sailors who have been racing in regattas for a decade now - and from the experience of a group of former university students with previous knowledge in the field of sustainable composites gained through the 1001Vela Cup university competitions.
The idea of the three founders - Fabio Bignolini, Andrea Paduano and Piernicola Paoletti - is to build boats that not only perform well at sea, but also respect the environment and workers' health. The nlcomp team is divided into two main areas, the first one deals with the study and optimization of materials while the other department is involved in the design and engineering of prototypes.
