Meraxis is expanding its service portfolio and will offer comprehensive laboratory services for the polymer industry starting in January 2026. The company is taking over the accredited testing laboratories from the REHAU Group. Meraxis is thus expanding its portfolio to include independent and internationally comparable testing services.

With the acquisition of production and development capacities, Meraxis is reaching the next milestone in its corporate strategy and setting an example for growth. The Swiss distributor will take over the REHAU Group's compounding plant in Velen (North Rhine-Westphalia) on January 1, 2026. The plant has a production capacity of around 50,000 tons and manufactures PP, PE, and PVC compounds for the automotive, medical, and furniture industries, among others, which Meraxis now distributes exclusively.

At K 2025, global polymer distributor Meraxis will demonstrate how plastics converters can use digital tools and services to achieve more efficient processes and greater sustainability. The focus will be on the customer portal with features such as a carbon footprint calculator and an AI-supported platform for faster and more cost-efficient material development.

Sustainability with substance – two recent developments demonstrate how Meraxis is taking responsibility: We have been awarded by EcoVadis for our sustainable practices. And we are now taking over REACH registration for selected materials in-house. For our customers, this means more choice, more safety, and more transparency.

In our new sustainability report, we show how we are reducing our ecological footprint, practicing social responsibility and making our company sustainable. We give you insights into our measures – with the aim of shaping a future-oriented, responsible polymer industry.

Sustainability can’t remain a promise – it must be verifiable. That is why we rely on independent certifications. With ISCC PLUS and RecyClass, we ensure that our products comply with the highest environmental and quality guidelines. What can Meraxis’ suppliers and customers rely on? An overview.
