Officine Maccaferri is pleased to announce a further step in its growth path. Thanks to the support of our majority shareholder Ambienta, Officine Maccaferri has completed the acquisition of Synteen Technical Fabrics Inc. Synteen is an established U.S.-headquartered company developing and manufacturing geosynthetics for the infrastructure sector.<\/p>\n\n

Founded in 1998 in Lancaster, South Carolina, Synteen offers a broad portfolio of high-performance geosynthetic products, such as geogrids and high-strength polyester fabrics. These products are designed to enhance soil reinforcement, improve ground stabilisation, and support civil engineering and construction projects. The longer durability of Synteen\u2019s products has a positive impact on resource efficiency through extended infrastructure lifespan in areas such as highways and similar road and railroad projects. Synteen supports the development of major infrastructure projects including for instance geosynthetics applications for roads and highways across North America with clients including federal agencies such as the United States Forest Service and the Federal Highway Administration.<\/p>\n\n

The global construction and infrastructure market is worth \u20ac12tn, with the infrastructure market responsible for 5% of global CO2 emissions, the majority being driven by the impact of construction materials. The market exhibits continuous growth, supported by several fundamental drivers including the growing share of urban population, the need for new infrastructure in developing markets, the upgrading of existing infrastructure in developed economies, and the increasing impact of climate-related hazards. In this context, the consolidation of our presence in North America will contribute to strengthening our geosynthetics division in a geographically strategic market where the Group\u2019s turnover has doubled over the last five years.<\/p>\n\n

The products developed by Synteen and their integration into our high sustainability engineering solutions play a key role in the transition towards ever more impact-conscious engineering, a trend in which we are positioned as one of the main players worldwide.<\/p>\n\n
