Building on a strong foundation: Solmax launches Performance Materials

MONTREAL, June 3, 2025 /CNW/ -- Solmax is proud to announce the launch of their new Performance Materials platform, the next chapter in the integration of a long-standing legacy of TenCate Geosynthetics and Propex, now operating as a division of Solmax. 

For decades, both TenCate Geosynthetics and Propex built an Industrial Fabrics reputation next to their Geosynthetics activities with innovative, durable, and reliable solutions for the agricultural, recreational, and specialty markets. That commitment remains unchanged.

Performance Materials provides high-performance solutions that support agriculture, recreation, and specialty industries. The company brings deep technical knowledge, practical innovation, and a hands-on approach to solving real-world challenges – helping customers work smarter, protect essential resources, and thrive in a changing world. 

"Performance Materials builds on a proud legacy of delivering practical, reliable solutions," said Bob Gilligan, CEO of Solmax. "We are investing in the future of technical textiles, strengthening our offering for the agriculture, recreation, and specialty markets while staying true to the values that earned our customers' trust."
