The NCC and Carbon ThreeSixty have worked together on a number of innovative projects – most recently the ongoing development of revolutionary all-composite helicopter wheels – and the membership provides Carbon ThreeSixty with affordable enhanced benefits, including access to the NCC’s ‘beyond’ state-of the-art technology, specialist training and networking opportunities. 

Ed Allnutt, Managing Director at Carbon ThreeSixty, commented: “Having partnered with the NCC on numerous projects, Carbon ThreeSixty sees the affiliate membership as a natural continuation of our collaborative working relationship. Affiliation provides CTS with affordable access to the NCC’s capabilities, expertise, training and networks.
