Rheom Materials

Rheom Materials core technology focuses on repurposing melt extrusion for scalable and affordable material solutions.

Melt extrusion exists worldwide allowing Rheom to work with suppliers and manufacturers without having to build a new system from scratch.

Rheom & Bio-based Suppliers

Rheom sources components from trusted suppliers who can produce experimental and scaled biobased chemicals. We enable material suppliers to utilize their existing products by innovating new ways of using them, thus opening up new market opportunities.

Rheom & Product Development

Rheom can develop custom composite materials for specific applications. We design these materials at a small scale and can customize their colors, textures, and finishes.

Our production method involves advanced melt extrusion techniques to produce continuous rolls of sheet materials.

Rheom & Manufacturers

Through work with third-party manufacturers, Rheom can utilize existing plastics manufacturing facilities to efficiently produce bio-based materials at a large scale.

By using established infrastructure, we can deliver faster to the market and produce more sustainably.

Rheom & Customers

At Rheom Materials we help consumer goods brands that are searching for sustainable alternatives find solutions. We can embark on co-development opportunities, generating unique materials together, designed to fit customer specifications.

Also, if your company already has a production partner, we can move production to vertically integrated facilities.
