French technical textiles specialist Chomarat Group has finalized the acquisition of CTMI, a company focused on high-performance textiles and composite materials, reinforcing its strategic position in advanced composite reinforcements.

The move expands Chomarat's expertise in specialty fibers and engineered textile solutions critical to demanding composite applications across aerospace, defense, and other high-performance markets.

With a global presence in the composite materials reinforcement market for several decades, CHOMARAT, a French family-owned group, confirms its commitment to a long-term growth and development strategy with this acquisition. Thanks to this transaction, CHOMARAT becomes the only 100% French and independent player capable of offering a complete and sovereign range of technical textiles and high-performance composite materials for strategic markets such as aerospace, defense, and space.

Florent Troubat, President of the CHOMARAT Group: "The acquisition of CTMI allows us to accelerate our development and enrich our product range thanks to the company's strong technological expertise, particularly in specialty fibers such as quartz and ceramics, but also in complementary technologies like pre-impregnation and Towpreg for niche applications."

Loïc Alirand, President of GSL, CTMI's parent company: "CTMI will be able to rely on a solid group with strong values to pursue its development and implement its strategic roadmap. I am delighted with this agreement."
