History
Bill Seemann’s
career as a boat builder first began with his small boat repair company
named Leda Boat Works in the early 1960’s. As his passion for boat building
grew, he began building Olympic Fin Racing Dinghies and by the mid 60’s, he
was building custom fiberglass boats. His interest in the research and
development of composites fabrication led him to the invention and
patenting of C-Flex. In the years following, racing yachts built with
C-Flex began to dominate sailing circuits around the world. In 1970 he
began Seemann Plastics, which later became Seemann Fiberglass, and began
working on vacuum processing.
Seemann
Composites, Inc. (SCI), was founded in 1987 to develop the technology of
vacuum infusion, specifically SCRIMP (Seemann Composites Resin Infusion
Molding Process). Its founder, Bill Seemann, had worked for decades
building fiberglass boats and distributing composite materials throughout
the Gulf-South SCI was founded on its research and development innovation
with composite fabrication processes and is a recognized leader in large
scale resin infusion technology. SCRIMP enjoys worldwide usage today and
has been attributed to starting an industry-wide revolution in vacuum
assisted resin transfer molding of composites.
