WORKING CRITERIA
What we do
CTS develops and produces a completely innovative range of high-performance, ultralight cylinders for compressed gases. Leveraging its expertise, CTS has seized the opportunities that composite materials offer to create the lightest and safest pressure vessels ever.
The groundbreaking technology of CTS involves the production of “type 4” composite cylinders made from a composite material, carbon fiber, and resin, with an ultra-lightweight PET (polyethylene terephthalate) liner inside. Type 4 composite cylinders represent the latest evolution in cylinder construction, starting with “type 1” cylinders made from steel or aluminum alloy, progressing to type 2 and 3 with a metal structure and liner, and finally reaching “type 4
In designing this new type of cylinder, CTS has put the needs of the end-user first, thus succeeding in providing equipment that is comfortable, has a high volume/weight ratio, and above all can guarantee maximum safety even in emergency situations and dangerous environments.
quality at the center of cts
CTS constantly develops new technologies for the
production of compressed air cylinders, thanks to
the strong effort in R&D.
We believe that it is not
sufficient to strictly comply with international
norms: standards must be exceeded in order to provide
the highest level of customer satisfaction and safety.
CTS has a well-equipped laboratory to test its cylinders beyond all limits. Every test performed on the cylinders is done in-house, in our test benches, ranging from hydraulic testing to burst testing.
The high technological content and our vision lead us to place quality as the main tool to support the entire company organisation and all its processes.
The adoption of an ISO 9001 quality management system is therefore the natural result of Composite Technical Systems S.p.A.’s strategic choice.
