We are confident that FibrXL will ensure the continuous growth of our Dyneema® offering for various end-markets worldwide.”


Marcel Alberts, Managing Director of FibrXL, said: “We are excited that we can support DSM Protective Materials in their growth ambitions by expanding our distribution network worldwide for Dyneema® products. This extended partnership gives a larger range of customers and end-users the opportunity to access these products and with our fiber enhancing services and state-of-the-art Prisma® coating technology, we help them to improve performance and reduce system costs.”
