This week Sigmatex is pleased to announce a new supplier agreement with Embraer, one of the largest aerospace companies in the world. Sigmatex is the world's most advanced carbon fibre textile supplier through our unrivalled product range, commitment to innovation and our strong customer focus – all of which is underpinned by our design for performance ethos.

Sigmatex were selected as the chosen supplier based on our extensive capabilities and experience as a long-term supplier to the Aerospace industry and will work in partnership with Embraer to support their adoption of composite technologies.
