HCMC, Vietnam – Rapido’s builder, Triac Composites, manufacturer of advanced composite solutions will exhibit at the world’s largest marine equipment trade show, METSTRADE 2025, from 18–20 November 2025 in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Foiling Technology Zone
Located in the Foiling Technology Zone, Triac will present its globally recognised expertise in the design and manufacture of high-performance composite components, including C foils (asymmetrical), daggerboards, rudder blades, masts, beams, struts and bulkheads.
With a proven track record in building lightweight vessels (as per every Rapido Trimaran) and precision-engineered components for performance sailing, Triac is uniquely positioned to meet the fast-growing demands of the foiling sector.

Why Foiling Needs Triac’s Expertise
Foiling technology thrives on precision and minimal weight; every gram matters when it comes to lift, speed, and efficiency.
Triac’s advanced composite manufacturing techniques include using prepreg carbon fibre which is cured in the autoclave. It delivers strength, stiffness, and weight optimisation which is critical for peak foiling performance.
“Whether it’s a high-aspect C foil for a racing / performance multihull, a lightweight mast for a monohull, or a structural beam for electric foiling ferries, Triac has the experience and capacity to deliver world-class results,” said Paul Koch, General Director at Triac Composites.
“With electric propulsion and battery manufacturers increasingly targeting the foiling sector, the need for lightweight, efficient platforms has never been greater. This is exactly where Triac shines.”

METS — The Global Stage
Attracting over 1,500 exhibitors and 26,000 marine industry professionals from more than 120 countries, METSTRADE is the definitive global marketplace for marine innovation and technology.
The Foiling Technology Zone is one of the show’s most dynamic hubs, drawing designers, boatbuilders, component suppliers, and innovators from across the performance marine and electric propulsion sectors.
