Description

Synthomer plc functions as a leading producer of specialty chemicals, with its operations organized into four primary divisions: Performance Elastomers, Functional Solutions, Industrial Specialities, and Acrylate Monomers. The company develops and supplies an extensive array of chemical products serving various industries. Its offerings include a wide selection of adhesives, such as pressure-sensitive variants, acrylic polymers, dispersions, saturants, and release coatings. For the construction sector, Synthomer provides critical materials like water-based carboxylated styrene butadiene rubber, redispersible powders, and specialized flooring adhesives. In the textile industry, it manufactures impregnation binders, styrene butadiene copolymers, and other polymer binders. Synthomer's product range also features binders specifically designed for carpets, alongside synthetic binders, additives, and plastic pigments essential for diverse paper coating applications, including graphic, packaging, and specialty papers. The company formulates various binders, dispersions, and both water-based and solvent-borne resins tailored for a broad spectrum of coating requirements. Its advanced materials extend to components for foamed bedding and footwear, elastomeric modifiers used in thermoplastics, and reinforcement resins vital for rubber compounds, notably latex for tire cords. Furthermore, Synthomer supplies compounds and aqueous curing pastes for applications such as carpets, in addition to acrylic monomers crafted to enhance the performance characteristics of polymer formulations, and antioxidant products. A key area of its specialization involves latices for different types of gloves, encompassing those used in medical examinations, clean rooms, food handling, and industrial settings, prominently including high-performance nitrile latex. The company also offers a suite of industrial chemicals suchides, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetates, thermosetting resins, and other inorganic materials, alongside coalescing agents that improve the properties of coatings. Established in 1863, Synthomer plc maintains its headquarters in London, United Kingdom. The company underwent a name change in 2012, having formerly operated under the name Yule Catto & Co. plc.
