ABOUT US

VISION, INTEGRITY AND PASSION FOR WHAT WE DO

The parent company of Synthesia Technology Group (Synthesia Española, S.A.), founded in 1964 with private capital, began its activity in the chemical industry manufacturing paints for facades, plastisols and urea-formaldehyde insulation. In the late 60’s, the activity in the polyurethane field began, one of the activities that has had the greatest development within the business group.

The Synthesia Technology Group is made up of a Spanish-based holding company specialized in the manufacture and commercialization of chemical products, polyester polyols and polyurethane systems for thermal and acoustic insulation and diverse industrial applications. With more than 50 years of experience, Synthesia’s brand represents a benchmark in the residential and industrial insulation markets.

Currently, the Synthesia Technology Group belongs to the Irish Kingspan Group, pioneers in high-performance thermal insulation technologies, focused on energy efficiency.

The Synthesia Technology Group has 3 production plants (2 in Barcelona-Spain and 1 in Colón-Panama) and 1 new plant in USA (ongoing project). It also has a network of its own establishments, agents and distributors in Europe, America, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

The Synthesia Technology Group has been committed since its beginning to intensely promote the research, development and innovation, being, today, one of the few independent companies with its own technology within the sector, having flexibility and quality as pillars.

The cohesion of science and innovation has allowed us to differentiate ourselves and focus much of the activity on the development of specific products, to offer solutions that are adapted to the individual needs of our clients.

The Synthesia Technology Group offers integral solutions to the industry through its business units of:

Polyurethane Systems

CSR
Corporate Social Responsibility

The Synthesia Technology Group is committed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in order to manage and minimize the impact that its activity generates on its customers, employees, shareholders, local communities, the environment and on the society in general.

Synthesia Technology Group works every day on standards and responsible behaviours that all people related to Grupo Synthesia must follow and put into practice. We are all responsible for complying with these reference guidelines, essential principles to guarantee our business model.

Committed to the environment

At Synthesia Technology we are using PET recycled from plastic bottles in the production of a key raw material used in the manufacture of high-performance insulation for building construction. We are demonstrating that it is possible to use plastic responsibly, upcycling it into a brand-new product that helps to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions, for the benefit of all.

We are Planet Passionate

At Synthesia Technology we have organized various environmental volunteer actions to clean up plastic waste on the Barcelona coast.

These volunteer initiatives are part of the awareness campaign on some of the biggest challenges that we face today as society such as global warming, sustainability and pollution of our natural environment.

With actions such as the collection of plastic waste and its recycling, we take action to develop a circular economy and promote greater sustainability and environmental awareness.
