PRODUCT BULLETIN
PROCESSABILITY
MEETS PERFORMANCE
Polystrand™ advanced thermoplastic
composites combine high strength,
unidirectional, continuous fibers with
engineered thermoplastic resins to create
continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic
(CFRTP) materials that feature exceptional
strength-to-weight ratio and high impact
resistance.

The company reported third quarter sales of $754 million compared to $823 million in the prior
year.
The company also noted that it had paid down $100 million of debt and refinanced its Term Loan
during the third quarter, reducing the interest rate and extending certain maturities from 2026 to
2029.
Given our cash position, we paid down $100 million of debt
during the quarter, which brings our total debt reduction to $300 million since we financed the
acquisition of Dyneema last year,” said Jamie A.
