High-performance solutions for high-tech applications

Our robust and lightweight range of Technyl® polyamides are used in the manufacture of technical, electronic, domestic and industrial protection material in addition to sports equipment.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
Our fibers and polymers are used to manufacture products as varied as cords for tires, fibers for airbags, climbing ropes or intelligent clothing in addition to hard-wearing coverings.

We are constantly looking for ways to increase the scope of our products’ applications by including new properties or new functions.

Experts in ensuring the protection and safety of people and property

Several ranges of protection products take advantage of the different properties of our polyamides:

  • The resistance of flame-retardant engineering plastics,

  • The safety of electrical equipment (contact with water),

  • The safety of food and cosmetics (barriers for sprays and films used for foodstuffs),

  • The exceptional purity of our range of cigarette filter tow, derived from cellulose acetate.

A single priority: quality and comfort of use

In addition to their long-lasting resistance, Rhodia’s yarns and fibers are designed to provide real comfort of use along with innovative functionalities with applications in products as varied as underwear, seat covers and carpets in the automotive industry or carpeting used in public places.

Integrating your environmental priorities

Regulatory requirements and social expectations related to human health and environmental protection form an integral part of all our developments. The recycling of our products at the end of their useful lives and the design of solutions with smaller environmental footprints are essential aspects of our R&D.
