Sustainability

Our Vision: Zero Waste in Every Layer

TeXtreme® is committed to minimizing environmental impact while maximizing material performance. Smarter use of resources, circular thinking, and responsible sourcing guide how we develop our materials and collaborate with customers across industries.

Sustainability is integrated into our operations, from fiber selection and product design to manufacturing and process control. Certified systems, including AS9100 for aerospace, support consistency, reduce material waste, and enable longer-lasting composite solutions.

 Impact Through Lighter Materials 

CO₂ savings from reduced weight
Comparing TeXtreme® with conventional carbon fiber in a car bonnet over a 100 km drive.

0,228kg weight saved. 

TeXtreme® vs. conventional carbon fiber on a 1.2 m² car bonnet

Conventional carbon fiber (300 gsm): approx. 0.360 kg part weight

TeXtreme® (110 gsm): approx. 0.132 kg part weight

Weight saved: 0.228 kg per bonnet

194g CO₂ reduction.

With a CO₂ emission factor of 8.5 g per kg/km, saving 0.228 kg in weight over 100 km reduces emissions by:
0.228 kg × 100 km × 8.5 g = 194 g CO₂ saved per vehicle per 100 km

63% emission reduction. 

TeXtreme®: 0.132 kg × 100 km × 8.5 g = 112.2 g CO₂

Conventional: 0.360 kg × 100 km × 8.5 g = 306 g CO₂

Result: TeXtreme® delivers 63% lower CO₂ emissions for the same part

Three Focus Areas

Our sustainability strategy is built around three key areas: smarter material use, bio-based innovations, and extended product life. Together, these pillars guide our efforts to reduce environmental impact without compromising performance.
Smarter Material Usage

Smarter Material Use

Maximizing material efficiency and minimizing waste are key goals in sustainable manufacturing. TeXtreme® Spread Tow Thin-Ply Technology enhances fiber alignment and allows for more precise resin control—reducing excess material while maintaining outstanding mechanical properties. 

 

TeXtreme 090 Biobased - Flax-1

Bio-based Solutions

TeXtreme® Bio-based Flax represents the next step in sustainable, high-performance composites. It offers a lower environmental impact without compromising strength or durability.

Integrating flax fiber reinforcements provides an environmentally responsible solution that meets the same demanding standards as traditional carbon fiber composites. 

 

Build for Longevity-1

Built for Longevity

Sustainability is also about longevity. TeXtreme® composites are designed for long product lifecycles, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing waste.

Ongoing research into recyclability and end-of-life solutions ensures our materials support circular economy principles, balancing exceptional performance with environmental responsibility.
