“The two companies are well acquainted premium distributors of DSM Dyneema in Europe, while Gruschwitz mainly serves the German speaking countries and Eastern Europe,” an EuroFibers press release informed.

MD Marcel Alberts said, “Appointing Gruschwitz as distributor of Prisma Shielded Dyneema forms part of our strategy to focus on innovation and further build the Prisma brand in and outside Europe.”

“EuroFibers will continue to provide extensive technical support to all direct and indirect customers through its network of experts,” he added.

Prisma is a coating technology that creates innovative solutions to shield high performance fibres and the name originated from the initial trials conducted when EuroFibers tried to coat Dyneema fibres.

Dyneema is only available in white and now also black, but the Prisma coating technology is offered in all colours of the rainbow. (AR)
