The Power of Composites
“The world’s most advanced
composite core materials”
Since 1939
CoreLite Today
What do you think when you hear CoreLite?
• The Mosquito airplane? • Kon-Tiki Expedition? • Life vests?
Really? That was decades ago. Today, we are a new CoreLite. Possibly, not like you imagined.
For a start, we are in more than 10 different industries.
Our leaders apply Design Thinking. We develop our own robotic and information systems.
We embrace sustainability and are giving back!
• We built the most advanced balsa wood’s kiln drying system, enabling the shortest time
to kiln-dry the balsa, and our technologies make structures lighter, but stronger.
• We’re transforming wind energy and helping build the boats of the future.
• We have developed an incredible radar absorbing material for the military.
• We’re revolutionizing mass transit transportation and teaching manufacturers how to
make their structures more durable while enabling them to capitalize on it.
• We’re helping aircraft spend more time flying.
• We’re reinventing the construction industry.
• We’re changing the game for sports and making cars go faster.
• We’re using proprietary robotics in our manufacturing and reinventing composites.
• We’re predicting what you will need and when, and we’re just getting started.
Each client’s need is different…
but often, the product is not.
What if new composite technologies were…
…customized to your needs? …delivered on-time?
…sustainable and organic? …more effective?
…produced with extreme agility?
…designed to minimize your waste?
At CoreLite, we understand that when
working with composites, the “one size fits
all” approach cannot be taken because
every user’s needs vary.
Therefore, we work together with our clients
in a holistic approach to find a unique
solution for their particular problem.
And then, we start producing with extremely
fast turnarounds.
We believe that innovative core materials,
combined with agile manufacturing, will
optimize the way the world works with
composites.
We believe in customized composite solutions for you. _
This idea drives everything we do at
CoreLite, making us the leading balsa &
foam core materials manufacturer.
Our unique manufacturing technologies
enables us to deliver the best quality,
r e d u c e t i m e a n d c o s t , i n c r e a s e
sustainability and customize each project.
Our goal is to enable our customers with
more competitive advantage.
We engineer customized solutions to fit your needs
Some see a simple tree.
We see the potential that
changes everything.
We are working for a greener
world.
CoreLite produces revolutionary  composite core
materials to make structures lighter, but stronger.
Our core materials are  engineered to increase
performance and help our customers gain more
competitive advantage.

We offer a wide range of End-Grain Balsa Wood Core
and Foam Core products which enables us to deliver
the right core material solution for your needs.
We believe in composites.
CoreLite uses the latest technology to produce BALSASUD® Core, CoreLite® Board and
CoreLite® PET in a completely innovative and sustainable manner that helps our
customers be more competitive and keep the planet plentiful.
We have the technical knowledge and experience to provide professional guidance to our
customers on how to best use our products for their particular application and help them
save time and money.
Our state-of-the-art kilns enables our excellent time to kiln-dry practices so our balsa
wood core comes with no drying defects and the correct moisture content, optimizing our
process and overall quality. The result is balsa core that will not rot or delaminate when
used properly.
Innovation that helps you gain more
competitive advantage.
What if you could reduce
resin absorption?
To reduce resin absorption, CoreLite has
the capability of coating the balsa wood
panels with a proprietary Epoxy-based
coating system with ultra-modern UV
coating machinery.
However, this is only one part of the
process. According to our tests,
approximately 50% of resin absorption
depends on the gaps, which is why our
panels contain virtually no gaps.
What if your kits were
more cost-effective?
We use lean manufacturing techniques
that make our kits much more cost-
effective and extremely fast to produce.
Combined with our convenient locations,
we are able to provide incredible agile
turnarounds for you.
Straight from the raw source to you.

  • 11. We believe in sustainability. Due to the strict quality standards required for some applications, we do not simply want to produce better balsa wood. We want to produce much better balsa wood. We aim to make a difference in the world. The main purpose of our FSC™ certification is to assure that our balsa wood processing facility meets a set of rigorous environmental criteria. Fully sustainable and organic BALSASUD® Core is the result of this approach. CoreLite’s strict time to kiln-dry practices ensure that the wood enters the kilns within the week of being harvested. We measure and weight each timber, to deliver a more density-consistent final panel, that will avoid failure due to an inadequate- density zone within the panel. The overall result of CoreLite®: unique high quality with very fast response times at lower costs.
