Armacell, a global leader in flexible foam for the equipment insulation market and a leading provider of engineered foams, and smartMELAMINE, a joint venture of the German TITK Group and the Slovenian listed company Melamine d.d., today announced their cooperation agreement.

Bart Janssen, Armacell’s Vice President of Engineered Foams, commented: “We are delighted to expand our best-in-class product range of acoustic and thermal insulating solutions for high-temperature applications. For customers who require a combination of excellent acoustic and thermal insulation, melamine non-wovens are the solution of choice.”

This agreement will initially run for a 2-year term with multiple extension possibilities. The parties have agreed to remain silent on the commercial terms of the deal.
