History
Originating from a strategic partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense, Alexium developed its Reactive Surface Treatment (RST) technology platform, which was initially derived from research conducted by the U.S. Air Force to counter chemical and biological warfare threats.
Following its initial public offering on the ASX in 2010, Alexium grew its workforce by incorporating business experts, engineers, scientists, and consultants across three international sites. Its main corporate office in Melbourne is supported by a 25,000 square-foot facility in Greer, South Carolina, which includes executive management, manufacturing operations, and research and development laboratories.
Since then, Alexium has enhanced its suite of technologies, placing emphasis on thermal management innovations and flame retardant solutions for a variety of industries.
Environmental record
In response to environmental concerns surrounding conventional bromide- and halogen-based flame retardants (FR), Alexium is actively creating non-halogenated FR alternatives to satisfy rising global market needs. Additionally, the company is adapting its product range to comply with evolving c6 fluorocarbon regulations, promoting both regulatory adherence and environmental sustainability.
