High Performance Materials for a more Sustainable World
A designer of materials and innovative solutions, Arkema shapes materials and creates new uses that accelerate customer performance.
Our flagship brand families, Kynar® PVDF, Pebax® elastomers, Rilsan® Polyamide 11 and Kepstan® PEKK represent some of the world’s highest performing polymers across diverse markets, such as automotive, chemical processing industry, energies or consumer goods…. Each demanding durability, longevity and consistency of supply across the globe.
Arkema’s amino 11 chemistry is derived from the castor bean, a renewable crop that does not compete with food and does not cause deforestation. Arkema is a leading driver of sustainable castor farming in India. Arkema is a founding member of the Pragati project, the world’s first sustainable castor farming program.
Arkema launched its Virtucycle® program in 2019 to offer 3 axis of support to Arkema’s high performance polymers customers and downstream users: Eco-design expertise, recyclability guarantee and recycling and recycled high-performance polymer. The program develops loops for the collection and regeneration of high performance polymers while minimizing CO2 emissions.
