Custom Composite Solutions
FDL provides a complete project service, taking ideas from initial scoping and design through pattern and mould making, manufacture, finishing and installation. Our in-house capabilities and network of specialist suppliers and subcontractors allow us to manage complex projects with continuity from concept to completion.
Although composites are our speciality, we do not assume they are always the best solution. We consider performance, finish, weight, durability, production requirements and cost to recommend the process and material best suited to each project.
Fibreglass is strong, lightweight, weather-resistant and capable of forming complex shapes with a wide variety of finishes. Our experience spans transport, aviation, marine, architecture, public art, commercial fit-outs, panels, baths, pools, tanks and custom enclosures—from prototypes and one-off projects to repairs and repeat production.

Our Services
Design & Development
From an initial idea or sketch through to a production-ready design, our in-house team develops practical solutions around your requirements. SolidWorks modelling, rendering and CNC programming allow designs to be refined before manufacture begins.
Project Management
FDL can coordinate the complete project, including scoping, design, procurement, manufacture, finishing, delivery and installation. We manage complex requirements and tight schedules while keeping responsibilities and progress clear.
Pattern & Mould Making
Our experienced pattern and mould makers produce accurate tooling for prototypes, one-off components and repeat production. We select the most efficient construction method for the required shape, finish, tolerances and production volume.
Composite Manufacturing
FDL manufactures custom fibreglass and composite products ranging from large panels and architectural features to complex moulded components. Our Feilding facility supports prototypes, one-off projects and repeat production.
Installation
Where required, our team can test-assemble components before delivery and complete installation on site, helping ensure that finished products fit and perform as intended.
Repairs & Refurbishment
We repair and refurbish fibreglass panels, fixtures, vehicle bodies and other composite products. Our team can assess the damage, restore structural integrity and provide a durable finished surface.
