Founded by Victrex in 2006, the Asia Innovation and Technology Centre (AITC) has played a central role in R&D in China, and throughout the Asia region, by helping customers to bring their ideas to reality with high-performance polymers such as VICTREX™ PAEK* polymers, APTIV™ films, Pipes, Fibres, Filaments, and Uni-Directional (UD) tapes. Shanghai was selected as the specific location for the Centre on account of its leading role in technological development for the enterprise. Our expert team at the AITC can support customers throughout their journey, from material selection to part prototyping, and beyond, consulting on part design and injection moulding tool design, as well as part finite element analysis (FEA). This could significantly reduce the lead time for prototype sampling while providing data-based quality inspection before sampling and concept-proof decision-making prior to committing to large investments for the customers.
* PAEK, Polyaryletherketone, a family of high-performance thermoplastics, such as VICTREX™ PEEK
