Arkema invests in ERPRO 3D FACTORY

Arkema set up a close partnership with E3DF in 2018, in order to develop numerous projects in cosmetics, medical, automotive and eyewear applications using its unique range of bio-based and recyclable specialty polyamides, and its N3xtDimension® advanced liquid UV-curable resins, perfectly suited to the fast-growing and demanding 3D printing market.

With this investment of 10% in E3DF, Arkema will become a member of the strategic committee of the company and thus reinforce its existing partnership. The combination of Arkema, designer of innovative solutions, and E3DF, a specialist in large-series additive manufacturing, will accelerate the development of new high-value added applications in 3D printing.

This transaction is perfectly in line with Arkema’s strategy to develop its Specialty Materials in applications that address major sustainable development challenges.
