Ein Faser-Kunststoff-Verbund (FKV) (auch: faserverstärkter Kunststoff oder Faserverbundkunststoff, FVK) ist ein Werkstoff, bestehend aus Verstärkungsfasern und einer Kunststoffmatrix. Die Matrix umgibt die Fasern, die durch Adhäsiv- oder Kohäsivkräfte an die Matrix gebunden sind. Durch die Verwendung von Faserwerkstoffen haben Faser-Kunststoff-Verbunde ein richtungsabhängiges Elastizitätsverhalten (siehe Elastizitätsgesetz).

A fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) (also fibre-reinforced polymer) is a composite material comprising a polymer matrix reinforced with fibres. The fibers are usually fiberglass, carbon, or aramid, while the polymer is usually an epoxy, vinylester or polyester thermosetting plastic. FRPs are commonly used in the aerospace, automotive, marine, and construction industries.

and naturally, 'Sandwich' is sandwich in English
fibre composite plastic
Faserverbundkunststoff
which on the basis of the previous Proz answer is probably "fibre composite plastic" or "material" - I am not a technical expert
