To promote innovation
and stimulate exchanges
Polymeris has set itself the objective of promoting innovation and stimulating exchanges and collaborative projects between players in the plastics, composites, and rubber industries. To do this, Polymeris offers all its members and partners a new format for involvement in the innovation process: industrial clubs, focused on key themes for the development and future of the plastics industry, composites and rubber.
The general objectives establish the operating principles and organization of these industrial clubs.
General objectives
- Promote and accelerate the industrialization of new technologies,
- Strengthen the cluster's network dynamics,
- Coordinate actions with scientific, technological, or economic experts,
- Support the dissemination of feedback and good practices,
- Create the best conditions for the implementation of innovation projects,
- Encourage “business” cooperation between industrial players in the cluster.
- Collectively respond to the individual needs and questions of industrialists and club players.
Presentation of the clubs
Additive Manufacturing Club
This club, created in June 2016, deals with additive manufacturing technologies, applications in direct manufacturing of parts or tools, manufacturing of polymer or metal parts, its challenges, market developments, user feedback, training needs...

Tools Club
In this group launched in early 2017, the specific features of tooling for composite parts are at the heart of the discussions. The materials of the molds, the necessary changes in production rates, the needs, and expectations of the various markets ...
Among the participants:
DMM/CMM / Solvay / GEORGES PERNOUD Le Groupe / ARC EN CIEL Sérigraphie / OERLIKON / CERO / AXEL ONE
Contact : Thibaut LEFORT +33 (0)7 72 32 41 62
Intelligent Plastics Club
The functionalization of polymers by various surface texturing, transfer or electronic printing technologies to impart new properties to the product are all avenues for increasing its added value.
What are the technological trends, the existing validation tests or those to be implemented or even the links with the electronics professions and its jargon are all topics addressed in this group which started in December 2015 ...
Among the participants:
CTIPC / SCNEIDER ELECTRIC / NOVAPACK / S2P / CLAYENS NP / PO / FAIVELEY / ARC-EN-CIEL / TECHNOFLEX / IONIOS / CEA / PLASTIFORM / TERAKALIS / SIMCON
Contact : Julie MALAQUIN +33 (0)7 85 01 34 80
Packaging Club
The evolution of packaging in recent years has been accompanied by a number of major technological and contextual innovations. Regulations are also changing very quickly, materials for packaging, barrier layers, the use of biobased materials, the need to recycle or recover in a circular economy ... are all subjects of interest for this group.
Among the participants:
ADDIPLAST / BARBIER/ BOBINO / CGP Flexibles / COLLY et MARTIN / EUROFINS / GUERIN PLASTIQUES / LEYGATECH / LABPLASTIC / RIBEYRON / SEDEM / SIGOPLAST / VELFOR / GBCC / CTCPA / BIV / REXOR / MULTISAC / SEDEM / WESSLING

Polyurethane Club
This club met for the first time in June 2018 at the end of a thematic day on Polyurethane materials with the aim of creating a community to discuss various topics of interest such as recycling, regulatory issues, the development of formulations that are more respectful of the environment or having specific properties, and the durability and aging of these materials.

Innovation And Medical Club
The first meeting of this club took place on the Pharmapack exhibition which took place on the 13th and 14th October 2021.
This club brings together both principals and subcontractors and proposes to bring together manufacturers who are willing to share their experiences and non-competitive issues. The Innovation and Medical Club addresses the following topics:
- Intervention of experts on new themes, technologies or materials
- Biosourced materials for medical devices and their packaging
- End of life and recycling of medical devices and their packaging
- Connected medical devices
- Monitoring and presence at trade fairs
- Presentations of new technologies
- Welcoming new members
- Monitoring of open PAAs available for health products
Contact : Nicolas LONGHITANO +33 (0)6 88 13 00 78
Europe Club
To date, 11 members are actively participating.
5 meetings:
- Launch
- Horizon Europe presentation
- Workshop to decipher a call for proposals and find partners
- Workshop to present the new template of proposal to answer the call
- Workshop to present EU partners: Fraunhofer, Eurecat, AITIIP, Centexbel, AIMPLAS...
- Implementation of an excel file of interest sharing on the EU PAAs
6 projects under development from the club's activity

International Club
A new hybrid organization has been chosen for Polymeris.
There will now be:
- A strategic steering committee, composed of 7 people. This committee will meet approximately once a quarter and will have the mission of supporting and advising Polymeris in its international strategy (choice of trade shows, missions, training, market studies, etc.).
- An international club (100% free of charge) that will meet twice a year and whose members will benefit from targeted information, access to events and privileged contacts for their international developmenclub international (100% gratuit) qui se réunira 2 fois par an et dont les inscrits bénéficieront d’informations ciblées, un accès aux événements, des contacts privilégiés pour leur développement international.
