Suprem SA (Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland) develops and manufactures continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites, consistently delivering materials designed to meet the rigorous demands of industries such as aerospace, defense, medical, energy and advanced manufacturing. The company’s comprehensive product portfolio features four principal unidirectional (UD) composite formats, each engineered for specialized processing and performance requirements:

  • Suprem T (tapes). Ideal for automated tape placement and filament winding processes, these tapes offer optimal mechanical performance and consistent quality.
  • Suprem F (Filaprem). Continuous fiber filaments that are optimized for 3D printing applications, enabling the production of strong, lightweight and complex parts with high thermal and chemical resistance.
  • Suprem R (rods). Pultruded rods suitable for structural and mechanical applications.
  • Suprem P (profiles). Tailor-made profiles featuring specific cross-section shapes to meet unique application needs in various industries.

These composite formats are manufactured using a wide selection of continuous fibers, including carbon (standard modulus, intermediate modulus, high modulus, ultra-high modulus), glass and aramid fibers, which are reinforced with high-performance thermoplastic matrices. The matrix selection includes TPI, PEEK, PEKK, LM-PAEK, PES, PPS, PA12 and fluoropolymers, providing adaptability in mechanical performance and processing capabilities.

Suprem’s production equipment, proprietary technology and process know-how ensure the consistent quality and reliability of its products. These materials are specifically engineered to support automated manufacturing techniques and in situ consolidation, enabling efficient production of complex, high-strength composite structures.

With 40 years of experience, the company is certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 standards and complies with stringent qualification requirements for the medical, aerospace and ground transportation sectors. Suprem’s materials are widely used in applications such as medical implants, high-pressure hydrogen and compressed natural gas tanks, aerospace structural components, electric motor sleeves and lightweight systems for mobility and defense.
