(Limonest, France), developer of dry powder impregnation solutions, and (Lexington, N.C., U.S.), a finishing machinery manufacturer for textile solutions, are launching an innovations lab based in Lexington, North Carolina. The facility, to be inaugurated this month, will bring new expertise and resources to the U.S. market for dry impregnation solutions — which can be used for fiber-reinforced composite applications.
Fibroline and Navis TubeTex began a strategic partnership in January 2024. Launch of the Fibroline USA Innovation Lab, will help provide customers with support and technologies for the creation of novel textiles. “This new
lab is a hub for collaboration and ingenuity,” Will Motchar, president and CEO of Navis TubeTex, says. “It is designed to explore, test and bring to life groundbreaking textile solutions that meet evolving market demands.”
The U.S. location will enable Fibroline to collaborate directly with its partners all over the Americas, an important step for development of its solutions and accessibility to North American partners. “We had been wanting to extend our presence here,” notes Jérôme Ville, CEO of Fibroline.
