The new manufacturing line in Ramos Arizpe will produce a range of polymer compounds, including TPE and thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV), supporting GEON's strategic expansion of its polymer capabilities and enhancing its longstanding leadership in the commercialization of polyolefins. This expansion builds on the technology and expertise obtained from GEON's acquisition of PolymaxTPE in December of 2023, and is a response to significant customer demand for these premium materials.

The addition of TPE to GEON's portfolio of performance polymers drove investment in the company's Dyersburg, Tennessee, facility where TPE and thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) manufacturing capabilities were designed and commissioned to support growing customer demand. With TPE manufacturing facilities in Mexico, the United States and Nantong, Jiangsu, China, GEON is well-positioned to serve customers globally with a simplified supply chain across a diverse range of industries.

"The start-up of the new manufacturing line in Ramos Arizpe is a milestone in our commitment to invest and expand in Mexico ," said General Manager of GEON Mexico, Alberto Rios. "The Ramos Arizpe facility can now better support local customer growth with enhanced formulation, prototyping and sampling services, ensuring GEON remains a key innovation partner for the markets we serve."

The Ramos Arizpe facility began operations in 2003. Its location delivers a distinct advantage to automotive original equipment manufacturers and consumer markets with short lead times for materials. The facility holds IATF 16949 and ISO 14001 quality certifications.
