The Kermel manufacturing facility has been awarded ISO 9001:2000 certification since August 2003.
Kermel® fibers result from the research conducted by Rhône Poulenc in the 60s. They have been produced in France from the outset.
Up to 1984 , they were only sold to the French armed and police forces.
Gradually, Kermel® fibers were offered to all protective clothing markets (particularly the fire-fighting equipment market) across the world.
KERMEL company as it exists today came into being in July 1992 , in the form of a joint venture set up by Rhône Poulenc Aramides and Amoco Fabrics and Fibers Company.
When Rhône-Poulenc bought out the shares of Amoco in August 1996 , KERMEL became a fully-owned subsidiary of Rhône Poulenc.
In 1998 KERMEL joined Rhodia.
KERMEL has been bought out by the management (MBO) led by the European private equity firm Argos Soditic since September 2002.
