Comment: Fewer sources than last time, but the same fundamental problems. Of the four sources cited, #1 is just a supplier directory; #2 is the company's own website; #3 and 4 are churnalism pieces which almost certainly originate in the company's marcomms department.

- Comment: With the possible (?) exception of the CompositesWorld piece, none of the sources count towards notability per WP:NCORP, and that source alone, even if accepted, is nowhere near enough. DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:17, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
