Diatex Brings in Minority Investors to Expand Composite Processing Materials Business
Source publication date: 2 November 2026
French industrial group Diatex has brought Bpifrance and BNP Paribas Développement into its ownership with a combined 10% stake, as reported during its fortieth anniversary year. The company says the investment is intended to support acquisitions and expansion, while composite-related activities account for approximately 60% of its business. Diatex supplies process materials and equipment such as peel plies, vacuum bagging films, infusion meshes, silicone membranes and related tooling rather than finished composite structures. Its integrated French operations include technical textile weaving and converting. The development highlights continuing investment in consumables and manufacturing efficiency for infusion, vacuum bagging and resin transfer moulding.
