The production in Tunisia focuses on specialty polyesters, primarily PETG, through a combination of flexible batch operations, a continuous line, and a solid-state polymerisation (SSP) unit. The process configuration provides significant flexibility, enabling the manufacture of both amorphous and crystallised products, as well as different PETG and PCTG grades. The facility is integrated within a large industrial zone and benefits from its coastal location, offering excellent access to port facilities.

Selenis USA

Starting in 2025, part of the Cedar Creek facility will be transformed into an innovation hub. The site will feature two dedicated lines producing 100% advanced recycled PET for the textile industry through the SYRE partnership. The remaining capacity will be repurposed to manufacture PETG and other specialty products serving the healthcare and general-purpose markets. With an onsite laboratory, railcar loading facilities, and direct railroad access, along with proximity to key supply chain partners, the facility achieves strong production efficiencies. Operating as a logistics hub serving the United States market since 2023, Cedar Creek ensures global supply security through its U.S. operations, supported by two European production plants as backup.

It is the responsibility of the medical device manufacturer to determine the suitability of the chosen Selenis resin used in its final product in order to ensure safety and compliance with the relevant laws and regulations. The medical device manufacturer is also responsible for the biological evaluation of the finished medical device.

Selenis resin shall not be used for:

  • any applications in continuous contact with bodily fluids for longer than 30 days;
  • any cardiac prosthetic device application;
  • any critical component in a permanently (longer than 30 days) implanted medical device that supports or sustains human life.

The suitability of a Selenis resin depends on the conditions in the end-use environment including temperature, part design, sterilization method, residual stresses, chemical compatibility, and external loads. lt is the responsibility of the medical device manufacturer to evaluate its final product under actual end-use requirements and to adequately advise and warn purchasers and users thereof.
