ALMARA
Almara was established in 2019 and is still a family owned company.
We become a leading producer of butyl compounds in CEE.
We are cooperating with all major butyl tape and composites manufacturers in our region.
Constant growth allows for the expansion of production facilities and RD laboratory to full file market needs and requirements.
our philosophy
Almara focuses on delivering top-quality products precisely tailored to the individual needs of customers and offered at competitive prices. A dynamic annual revenue growth of over 10%, driven by the introduction of new products and expansion into export markets, underscores the effectiveness of our approach. As an OEM supplier, our products, though less recognizable in the consumer market, are key components in applications such as ridge tapes, tile seals, or window installation tapes.
By efficiently leveraging production scale and implementing advanced technologies, we optimize costs while maintaining the highest quality standards. We use waste heat from production processes to heat our facilities, increasing energy efficiency. Our packaging is reusable and collected from customers, reducing costs and waste while relieving clients of the need to organize disposal. This adds value for our customers, who no longer need to worry about the disposal of additional packaging waste. Our production process allows waste to be recycled back into production, further minimizing environmental impact. Investments in modern technologies, process automation, and collaboration with trusted suppliers ensure price stability and the availability of key components.
Every stage of production is meticulously monitored. The process begins with order placement and thorough raw material inspections, with full batch number documentation. Process parameters are then monitored using a SCADA system. The final stage involves testing the properties of the finished product, such as peel resistance, density, and melt flow index. Validation also includes aging tests to ensure product durability and reliability. This rigorous approach guarantees consistently high product quality and provides customers with confidence that each batch meets their expectations, with precise traceability of raw materials used in the final products.
Each production batch is registered at the raw material ordering stage, with documentation including complete process data and quality test results. Samples of the finished product are stored for extended periods, enabling full transparency and quality verification at any time.
An example of our commitment is a project in the fireproof materials sector, where we identified critical bottlenecks and processing challenges. By utilizing a material with higher thermal stability, we eliminated the issue of film shrinkage under heat, simultaneously improving print quality and ensuring better adhesion. The client was able to focus on the functionality of their product, while we delivered comprehensive solutions, including optimization of extrusion, cutting, and print durability processes. Collaboration with component suppliers allowed precise adaptation of our products to market requirements.
Our products are created through a combination of the highest quality raw materials and unique specialist knowledge. The R&D team members are also academic researchers, and the company collaborates with Polish universities, fostering innovation and the highest standards. Three decades of experience in the elastomer industry, combined with partnerships with market leaders such as Exxon and BASF, enable us to meet the most demanding technical standards and continuously introduce innovations. Our solutions are used across a wide range of industries, as evidenced by numerous implementations and client successes.
Our mission is to create innovative butyl compounds that help our clients achieve their goals. We assist in developing products with new functionalities, providing technological support at every stage of implementation. We build long-term relationships based on trust, collaboration, and shared success.
Work
The main products of Almara are compounds based on butyl rubber, which are used in the production of roof seals, insulation materials, and industrial tapes. They are characterized by exceptional flexibility and excellent resistance to atmospheric factors. Thanks to the ability to precisely adapt to the individual needs of customers, they are an ideal choice for many industrial applications.
Our portfolio includes standard and specialized compounds tailored to various applications:
We offer two basic types of packaging:
We offer butyl in black or gray, which are the most commonly chosen by customers due to their versatility and adaptability to various applications. Black ensures a classic look for sealing tapes, while gray helps differentiate it from bituminous compounds. Upon request, other color versions are available, and fireproof compounds are typically available in red.
We provide comprehensive technological and production support, including a wide range of laboratory tests, measurements, and technical consultancy for external partners. For instance, we have assisted our clients in optimizing the settings of production lines for our materials, which increased their production efficiency, and advised on the selection of lamination materials to improve the durability of final products. We manufacture dies, forming plates for heads, and auxiliary parts for extruding butyl compounds. We assist in adapting the production line settings and extrusion conditions to our compounds, as well as providing advice on the selection of cooperating elements such as anti-adhesive foils or lamination materials.
Laboratory
Quality control and research activities are the pillars of our company, ensuring customers receive products of consistently high quality. This enables our partners to benefit from uninterrupted, efficient production processes and reliable outcomes. Every stage of our operations – from raw material procurement, through production, to sales – adheres to strict procedures that meet the highest industry standards. Our products are distinguished by their durability and reliability, minimizing the risk of failures and maximizing operational efficiency.
Almara has a modern, well-equipped laboratory that enables comprehensive quality testing to be performed independently. Each of our testing methods serves a specific purpose, providing insights into the key properties of materials.
Each of these methods provides valuable insights that help optimize production processes and ensure the highest product quality.
For every production batch, we store samples of the finished product and quality test results, ensuring full traceability and quality verification over time. Data from quality control tests are archived in dual formats – electronic and paper.
As a responsible company, we design our products in line with sustainability principles, enabling their durable and efficient use while minimizing negative environmental impact.
