About Skarn
Industrial progress depends not only on the materials available, but also on how they are formulated, processed and manufactured.
Skarn Advanced Materials brings together materials engineering and manufacturing innovation to explore new possibilities in engineered materials, precision processing and resource-efficient production.
Discover our approachAreas of interest
A multidisciplinary perspective on material systems, processing routes and industrial possibilities.
Exploring engineered material systems for applications where mechanical, thermal, chemical or functional requirements place particular demands on material selection and processing.
Investigating manufacturing approaches that expand component design possibilities and connect geometry, material utilisation and processing.
Exploring the conversion of industrial by-products and secondary raw materials into useful engineered material systems.
Examining how formulation, processing conditions and microstructure influence the properties and manufacturability of engineered materials.
Our approach
We see materials and manufacturing as interconnected engineering challenges. Our approach is guided by the application, the process and the performance required.
Begin with the application, material requirements and constraints of the intended process.
Investigate material formulations, processing routes and manufacturing approaches suited to the challenge.
Progress suitable concepts through engineering, prototyping and technical evaluation as projects develop.
Consider scalability, repeatability, resource requirements and application-specific performance.
