Advanced composite
technology for
industry
Setting the standard for performance,
ARC products are innovative and reliable.
At Chesterton, we are committed to providing the marketplace
with reliable, quality products and keeping your equipment
operating smoother, longer, and more productively. Chesterton’s
products are supported by talented and knowledgeable people
who draw on their extensive product and industry experience.
Our commitment to your operations is demonstrated by our
own investment in research and development. While the
industry average for R&D is about 2% of a company’s budget,
at Chesterton, we devote close to 7% for R&D efforts.
Chesterton’s ARC division illustrates our dedication to
adapting emerging technologies for industrial applications
to protect your equipment. ARC composite products are
scientifically engineered to protect your equipment against
abrasion, corrosion, erosion, and chemical attack. Since its
inception, the ARC division has enabled Chesterton to assume
a global leadership position in the use of innovative polymer
and composite technology applications.

To create an advanced matrix technology, ARC
products use specialized polymers developed for the
structural composite industry that are incorporated
into ARC materials via a proprietary manufacturing
process. ARC is the largest US consumer of selected
specific high-performance polymers for non-military
applications.
We’ve combined the extremely durable properties
of ceramic reinforcements with the resilience of this
advanced matrix technology to deliver powerful
resistance to the costly and damaging problems
of abrasion, erosion-corrosion, chemical attack,
and atmospheric corrosion. ARC composites have
been proven to outlast traditional materials like
hard-face welding, rubber linings, and ceramic tiles.
