Materia expands Proxima manufacturing facilities in Texas
PASADENA, Calif. – Materia Inc., a company in the development and manufacturing of catalysts and advanced polymers, is expanding its Proxima thermoset resins manufacturing capacity fivefold in Huntsville, Texas.
The expanded facility will complement Materia’s existing prototyping and polymer testing facility in Pasadena, Calif.
“Materia’s enhanced investment in our Proxima products further supports our ability to provide high quality customer service to engineers who are increasingly looking for alternative materials that reliably save time and money,” said Nitin Apte, president and CEO, Materia. “Compared with commonly used polymers, Proxima thermosets provide excellent performance in the most extreme conditions experienced in ultra-deepwater, oil and gas wells and in downstream chemical plants.”
Materia’s Proxima resins provide solutions that solve technology challenges in subsea thermal insulation, subsea buoyancy and downhole tools. Proxima resins are processed into durable polymer products that can be used in extreme environments.
