Toray Group (Tokyo, Japan) globally serves next-gen composite materials, highlighting its nearly 100 years of innovation across aerospace, defense, automotive, industrial and consumer markets. Founded in 1926, Toray has built a legacy of scientific and engineering excellence, contributing to society by creating new value and addressing global challenges through advanced materials engineering.
With a global footprint spanning 29 countries and regions, Toray employs approximately 48,000 people worldwide. Its presence at CAMX 2025 is represented by three of its U.S. composite material divisions: Toray Composite Materials America, Toray Advanced Composites and Toray Performance Materials Corp.
Each composite material divisions’ diverse product portfolio of high-value-added solutions and carbon fiber composite materials has enabled customers to develop light, strong and sustainable products — from commercial aircraft and defense systems to advanced air mobility (AAM) aircraft, satellites and sporting goods.
Toray material highlights include Torayca carbon fiber, thermoset prepregs, and Cetex and CFRT thermoplastic prepregs, all engineered for performance, quality and consistency. Toray also provides high-temperature cyanates, BMIs, polyimides and epoxies that perform in the harshest environments, ranging from the extremes of outer space to various applications worldwide.
Demonstrating Toray’s ongoing commitment to innovation, the company recently expanded its portfolio with thermoplastic composites such as Toray Cetex TC1130 Pesu for aircraft interior applications, Torayca T1200 — claimed to be the world’s highest tensile strength fiber at 8.0 GPa — and EcoTerra, a woven flax fabric with a bio-based thermoplastic resin formulation for automotive, consumer and recreational applications.
Toray is dedicated to supporting every stage of production, from prototyping to high-volume manufacturing, by combining a fully integrated global supply chain, a diverse portfolio and a distinctive technical support network. Toray has state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, including carbon-free zones for sensitive aerospace applications, which operate under rigorous quality standards such as ISO 14001:2015, AS9100 and NADCAP certifications.
The company is also driven by a long-term vision for sustainability and positive societal impact.
