As a sponsor of Formula Student for many years, we have supported various university racing teams, including Oxford Brookes Racing (OBR), Bath, Cambridge, and Coventry, UK and Wisconsin, USA. OBR Racing use Corex Honeycomb’s aluminium honeycomb core in the chassis of their electric racing car. This honeycomb is often used in automotive and motorsport vehicles because of its incredibly high strength-to-weight ratio and application in high-stiffness composite sandwich panels.
