Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, is a premium brand of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). We’ve been driving material science innovations for more than 30 years, enabling unmatched performance and protection in a wide range of end products and industries where failure is simply not an option.
As the world’s only backward-integrated producer of high-performance fiber, we use molecular engineering to create uniquely strong fibers – and weave them into unidirectional (UD) sheets that provide unrivaled ballistic protection in personal and vehicle armor applications.
Home to more than 1,100 employees worldwide, Dyneema® supports customers with our advanced technical expertise, global manufacturing footprint, and commitment to innovation, collaboration, and sustainability.
Since 2022, Dyneema® has been part of Avient Corporation (NYSE: AVNT), a leading provider of specialty and sustainable material solutions that turn customers’ challenges into opportunities and bring new products to life.
Bio-based Dyneema® fiber – certified by the ISCC and produced according to the mass balance approach – is also available. It offers a more sustainable alternative to conventional Dyneema® with no compromise on performance.
