Defence technology places the highest demands on strength, impact resistance, and durability – high-performance engineering plastics and fibre-reinforced materials (resins and glass fibre reinforcements) are used for this, and their prices largely shape component costs.

Companies that rely on pricenxt




With pricenxt Analytics, teams capture price developments faster, compare price series, and build up their own structured market monitoring.
Defence technology uses high-performance plastics and fibre-reinforced materials; movements in the prices of these materials act directly on the production costs of demanding components.
Demanding materials: transparent armour, housings and structural components require high-grade plastics with a correspondingly high cost share.
Resin and glass fibre as cost factors: alongside the matrix resin, prices for glass fibre reinforcements also shape the calculation.
Long-term procurement: programmes with a long time horizon benefit from transparent price developments and dependable calculation.



From procurement through to programme management: pricenxt supports key decisions along the entire value chain.
Tracks price developments for high-performance plastics and for resin and glass fibre raw materials, places the purchasing level in context and prepares supplier negotiations on a sound basis.
Selects materials for protective and structural components and assesses alternatives in terms of durability and material costs.
Keeps the material cost base of long-running programmes in view, identifies cost risks early, and bases planning on dependable market data.

For defence technology, impact-resistant PC, and PMMA for transparent protective elements and glass-fibre-reinforced polyamides are particularly relevant. For thermoset, fibre-reinforced components we report resin (UP ortho resins, medium reactive) and glass fibre reinforcements separately.
