Composites One to distribute Oxeon's TeXtreme reinforcements
U.S.-based Composites One will distribute Oxeon's TeXtreme spread tow reinforcements throughout the Americas.
Oxeon (Borås, Sweden) reported on May 2 that distributor Composites One (Arlington Heights, Ill., USA) has signed an agreement that gives it the right to distribute Oxeon's TeXtreme spread tow reinforcements across the Americas.
Andreas Martsman, vice president – marketing & sales of Oxeon, says, “We are very pleased to have Composites One on board as an authorized distributor of TeXtreme. They have a very high competency in composites, a broad product range and good reach on the North American market which we believe is very suitable for TeXtreme. And we also believe that this brings benefits to the customers sourcing materials from Composites One, being able to select TeXtreme in the mix of reinforcements available.”
In order to better utilize the full potential of the TeXtreme materials, and its unique benefits, the advanced composites team of Composites One has undergone special TeXtreme training. Oxeon says this gives the company a foundation to better identify the most suitable TeXtreme variant for specific application needs, offering customers weight reductions, performance improvements and enhanced surface smoothness. The team has already started to promote TeXtreme.
“We are thrilled to add TeXtreme to our portfolio, and we are glad to be able to offer the best spread tow reinforcements out there to our customer base. TeXtreme gives us an extra edge in providing high-performance products,” says Dwight Baker, general manager, Composites One Advanced Composites.
