Natural fibers have the advantage that they are renewable resources and bio- degradable. These agricultural wastes can be used to prepare fiber reinforced polymer composites for commercial use. Application of composite materials to structures has presented the need for the engineering analysis the present work focuses on the fabrication of polymer matrix sandwich composites by using natural fibers kenaf and jute which are abundant nature in desired shape by the help of various structures of patterns. Here E-glass fibers are used to improve strength. This sandwich composite are Fabricated by simple Hand layup technique. In this composite produce more tensile strength than other composite materials like as banana, sisal, coir, etc.,, The mechanical properties (flexural strength, Tensile strength, impact, and compression) are determined by flexural test, tensile test, impact test, density test, and their results are measured on sections of the material and make use of the natural fiber reinforced polymer sandwich composite material for automotive seat shell manufacturing, marine like boat, ships panels and aero vehicles parts.
