"VELOX will present a broad offering of thermoplastics, polymers, additives and composites, as well as paints and coatings products designed for a wide range of applications", says Guillaume Fromont, Product Manager Engineering Plastics.

"The cable market in Eastern Europe is steadily growing and we are pleased to be able to offer materials for a very broad range of applications", says Guillaume Fromont.
