Testimonials

"Steve Hassett is our composite technology guru. When our school was awarded a $30,000 grant for composites education it required matching donations. Steve offered to help us meet that match by donating both his time and materials. He's made himself available to the students once a month. Their projects range from snowboards and lacrosse sticks to wind turbine blades and electric cars, all of which present a variety of technological challenges. We save up our toughest questions for Steve and he always has an answer."

"I am pleased and proud to be professionally associated with Steve and Maureen Hassett. I have worked with Steve and Maureen for six-plus years, during which time I have observed their dedication to product quality and to their customers, as well as their commitment to employees and to economic growth within the community.

"Custom Composite Technologies has given uncompensated time and equipment to promote the mission of Maine's North Star Alliance Initiative, an advanced workforce development program for the state's boatbuilding, marine trade, and composite industries.

"The high level of integrity and business ethics that the Hassetts' have demonstrated over the years are a model for other small businesses. Their company is a credit to the State of Maine."

"CCTI provides a world-class level of manufacturing. Working together on a joint venture for a test specimen with very precise specifications, CCTI's attention to detail, diligence and quality assurance made the project a success. Steve's vast experience with composite technologies and Maureen's conscientious follow-up service are a winning combination."

"The canopy fabricated by CCTI for the Chewonki Foundation¹s solar-powered car (a collaboration with Kronosport), was an unqualified success. It was extremely lightweight, durable and able to carry the solar panels that powered the vehicle. This project demonstrates CCTI's ability to flexibly address a range of renewable energy applications. I'm excited to work with Steve and his team in the future, possibly on a tidal energy project that I am coordinating for the town of Wiscasset."

"CCTI is a class act and an inventive operation. The parts they built for Scheherazade couldn't have been more expertly constructed."
