Hello I am trying to buy everything that i need to start a carbon fiber business but i have to keep cost to a minimum. I want enough to do a couple of projects but unsure what and how much to get. I know that i need the mold release, vacuum pump, carbon fiber, resin, mold, and the bags but how do i know how much to order?

You are probably best off starting with a starter kit such as our Uni-Mould Mould Making Starter Kit for the moulds and our Resin Infusion Starter Kit for the parts. You then just need to work out amount of consumables, resins, fabrics and release agents which depend on your specific project.

How much you spend from there really depends on the scale of your projects.  The starter kits are great to get started on your first few projects, be it as an individual or as a business. You can then progress onto buying materials in a larger quantity or in bulk such as our
Wholesale Vacuum Bagging Supplies.
