Press release submitted on behalf of Arkema.

Arkema, Paris, France, dedicated to specialty materials – adhesive solutions,
advanced materials and coating solutions, started up its state of the art plant in Singapore and increased its global Rilsan® polyamide 11 capacity by 50%. Arkema announced the
construction of a new Rilsan® Clear transparent polyamide unit on its Singapore platform. The new capacity represents an investment of around $20 million and is expected to be operational in the first quarter of 2026.

This investment will triple Arkema’s global production capacity of Rilsan Clear transparent
polyamides and will help meet the growing global demand for sustainable high-performance transparent materials in various markets, including eyewear, consumer electronics, healthcare devices and home appliances.

Arkema is the leading producer of bio-based transparent polyamides, including its flagship
grades Rilsan® Clear Rnew® G850 and G820 containing respectively 45% and 62% bio-based carbon origin. These grades provide lightweight, high transparency, flexibility and chemical resistance, while maintaining performance across a wide range of temperatures. In addition, they are fully recyclable, as part of Arkema’s Virtucycle® recycling program for advanced polymers.

“We are very proud to take this new step forward with this expansion dedicated to transparent polyamides as it aligns with the evolving demand landscape, showcasing our commitment to global growth” said Laurent Tellier, senior vice-president High Performance Polymers and Fluorogases. “It marks the next step in developing our strategic platform in Singapore to support our valued customers in Asia and beyond.”

The project will also contribute to Arkema’s strategy to develop local supply from the region
to the region, providing customers with shorter lead times, resilient and competitive local
supply chains.
