Engineered Fiberglass Systems & VIV Suppression Solutions
Since 1982, AIMS Composites has established itself as a global leader in engineered fiberglass structural systems and offshore vortex-induced vibration (VIV) suppression solutions. Our expertise spans the design, fabrication, and installation of corrosion-resistant, non-conductive fiberglass products tailored for the oil and gas industry's demanding environments. With a dedicated team of engineers and project managers, we deliver custom solutions from initial design to offshore implementation, supported by strategic partnerships across 10+ countries.Our proprietary 3D structural analysis software ensures optimal design efficiency, while our acquisition of Teledyne Monarch Rubber's fendering technology in 1993 expanded our capabilities in kinetic energy management systems. Backed by ISO-certified processes and decades of field experience, we maintain rigorous quality control across all operations, including aluminum structure fabrication since 2017.

VIV Suppression Products
Our VIV suppression systems prevent structural damage in offshore environments. Using patented strake and fairing designs tested at Reynolds Numbers up to 2,000,000, these polyethylene products reduce drag coefficients while maintaining tight manufacturing tolerances. Clients benefit from extended equipment lifespan and reduced maintenance costs in deepwater applications.
Fiberglass Grating
We manufacture molded and pultruded fiberglass grating systems engineered for corrosion resistance. Available in multiple resin formulations, these load-bearing solutions provide non-conductive flooring options for offshore platforms. Custom configurations meet specific dimensional and safety requirements across diverse marine environments.
Platform Fendering Systems
Our TMR Compression Bonded Energy Cells manage kinetic impact forces on offshore structures. Using natural rubber with patented bond-in-compression technology, these systems offer superior deflection capacity compared to conventional cells. The solution protects jackets and barges while minimizing maintenance requirements in harsh marine conditions.
Structural Fabrication
Our fabrication division creates engineered fiberglass structures from detailed design drawings. Utilizing state-of-the-art tools and safety-certified technicians, we produce platforms, stair systems, and handrails meeting exact specifications. Aluminum structure fabrication capabilities complement our composite offerings since 2017.
Engineering Services
Our engineering team employs proprietary 3D finite-element analysis software for structural evaluation. Capable of analyzing fiberglass, steel, and concrete systems, we provide stress calculations and member resizing recommendations. This technical expertise ensures optimal design performance while maintaining industry-standard safety factors for offshore applications.

I searched a couple of different companies for a sheet of resin mesh grating for a project I'm working on and the AIMS website was the easiest to navigate and they shipped via FedEx which made the delivery process simple. The folks that work here are super nice and very responsive. A great experience.

AIMS International is one of the best Engineering Firms I have had the pleasure of working with. Everything Fiberglass, Grating, etc. they were able to help my company out with. They also have the ability to ship and work anywhere around the world and were able to help facilitate the process from start to finish in many of our locations in Africa, East Asia, and South America. I highly recommend AIMS International as one of the best Fiberglass composite Engineering firms in the country.
