Combining DSM's global market access and expertise with Chromatic's patented technology, the partners will jointly develop thermoset materials that DSM's customer's strategic growth markets are looking for to 3D-print end-use applications. Initial products to be rolled out by DSM include industrial-grade soft and durable thermosets, which are complementary to DSM's current portfolio of thermoplastics for fused filament fabrication (FFF). Starting immediately, the companies will build a broader portfolio based on customer needs in the strategic markets of footwear (in- and midsoles), transportation (such as in the growing area of automotive electronics), healthcare, electronics and tooling.
"Chromatic 3D Materials and DSM Additive Manufacturing have a shared vision to deliver high performance, industrial grade 3D printing solutions to manufacturing. Together, we will make the dreams of industrial implementation of 3D Printing a reality", said Cora Liebig, CEO of Chromatic.
