DOMO Engineered Materials, a global supplier of polyamide-based engineered materials, will present its material solutions at Plastindia 2026 (Hall 4FF, booth A3). With recently increased production capacity and strengthened local R&D capabilities, the company is addressing the evolving needs of the Indian market through a focus on specialization, sustainability and application-driven innovation. This approach reinforces DOMO's position as a solutions provider in the region and expands its portfolio of engineered materials based on polyamides and other resins.
"India is recognized as one of our fastest-growing markets globally," says Ron Bult, General Manager Asia at DOMO. "We are shifting our strategy toward stronger local support to enhance our presence in Asia and deliver cutting-edge solutions that enable smarter mobility, safer electronics, and a more sustainable future."
Developing local applications with advanced materials
In the area of lightweight design and advanced mobility, DOMO focuses on solutions that enable more efficient transportation and development of consumer products, as well as components for railways, power tools, furniture and the sports and leisure sector. The company particularly emphasizes applications involving metal replacement with engineering plastics offering high mechanical strength and dimensional stability.
One of the key projects presented in this field is a solution developed jointly with Canyon and Engel, which was a finalist in the JEC Innovation Awards. The project concerns a one-piece bicycle handlebar manufactured using gas-assisted injection molding. This technology enables very high mechanical strength combined with a significant reduction in component weight compared with traditional metal solutions.
Flame and heat resistance for e-mobility and electronics
Growing requirements in the e-mobility and electronics markets drive demand for materials with enhanced flame and high-heat resistance. In this area, DOMO is expanding its portfolio of halogen-free flame-retardant materials by introducing new grades from the Technyl Star and Technyl One families. They are characterized by improved flow, better surface appearance and thermal stability while maintaining flame-retardant properties after glycol aging.
These materials are designed for demanding applications such as battery components, charging infrastructure parts and power electronics housings. Among the presented solutions, the company highlights several key grades.
Technyl One J 60X1 V30
Technyl One J 60X1 V30 is a 30% glass-fiber reinforced, halogen-free flame-retardant material with UL 94 V0 classification. The grade has been developed to support mitigation of thermal runaway risk in e-mobility applications. It combines high flame retardancy, electrical insulation under high voltage, heat dissipation capability, thermal resistance up to 1300°C, resistance to cooling fluids and good processability.
Technyl Star AF 61SX V30 BK
Technyl Star AF 61SX V30 BK is intended for components in cooling circuits of electric vehicles. The material provides high property stability after glycol aging while maintaining flammability compliance and mechanical integrity, which is important for long-term use under elevated temperature and in contact with the cooling medium.
Technyl Star S 61X1 V30 BK
Technyl Star S 61X1 V30 BK has been optimized for assembly parts in battery systems and power electronics housings. This grade is designed to meet requirements for mechanical strength, dimensional stability and resistance to elevated operating temperatures, typical of components in drivetrains and power electronics of electric and hybrid vehicles.
Solutions based on recycled and bio-based feedstocks
At Plastindia 2026 DOMO will also present its sustainable solutions portfolio based on four complementary technologies. It covers mechanical recycling, the Move 4earth technology as a patented recycling solution, chemical recycling via depolymerization and mass-balance-based alternatives. In this way DOMO describes its position as the only market player offering all four sustainable pathways, enabling selection of the most suitable solution even for the most demanding applications.
This approach is intended to support customers in reducing environmental impact through the use of recyclates and renewable feedstocks while maintaining the mechanical and processing properties required in industrial, automotive and consumer applications.
Materials for sustainable water management
DOMO is also developing new material solutions for water management applications. These plastics are designed for low water uptake, high dimensional stability and chlorine resistance at low temperatures. They are suitable for the production of components used in domestic and industrial water management systems, including applications in contact with drinking water.
The Technyl Safe range includes materials compliant with drinking water and food contact requirements, based on polyamide 66 and polyamide 6.10. They combine chlorine resistance, dimensional stability and a high share of renewable content, which allows combining regulatory compliance with the need to reduce environmental impact in infrastructure applications and end-use equipment.
