    HTMS (High Temperature Material Systems) is an advanced materials company developing next-generation Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) for use in extreme environments. Its proprietary technology significantly reduces the cost, energy consumption and production time associated with manufacturing these high-performance materials, helping to make them more accessible across a wider range of industries.

    Founded in 2021, HTMS is creating a UK supply chain for advanced thermal composites that combine the heat resistance of ceramics with the strength and flexibility of fibres. The company's materials are being developed for applications across automotive, aerospace, defence and energy sectors, where lightweight, durable and heat-resistant solutions are increasingly in demand.

    “Richard and I saw the potential of advanced thermal composites but were frustrated with the high cost and lack of a UK supply chain. This is a fantastic moment for British manufacturing. We are excited to scale up manufacturing of our world-leading products and look forward to growing our business and championing British innovation.”

    Dr Danilo Di Salvo, CEO and Co-founder of HTMS
