We are CED Ltd; an independent consultancy specialising in composite engineering and design since 2008. We utilise significant experience from our time in Formula One, automotive OEMs, and materials manufacturing to deliver expert consulting services in the design of lightweight structures.

Our team at CED unites extensive hands-on experience with a deep understanding of composites to navigate their intricacies and complexities. Recognizing the unique failure mechanisms inherent to composite products, we employ specialist techniques and knowledge to address these challenges. Our proficiency extends to leading tools such as the Ansys Structures Enterprise suite and LS-Dyna, allowing us to carry out precise finite element analysis, advanced simulations, and structural analysis, ensuring optimal design recommendations.

Being at the forefront of composite materials engineering, we are active participants in grant-funded programmes through institutions like Innovate UK, the Niche Vehicle Network (NVN), and the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC). This engagement allows us to contribute to the development of state-of-the-art technologies in the materials and propulsion industries.
