At RIMSA, our story is told not just with words, but with transformations.
Our motto, “people rethinking solutions,” comes to life in the journey our materials take: from a modest origin, such as industrial waste or a basic raw material, to becoming a critical high-performance component.
We invite you on a visual tour through our three divisions to discover how this philosophy of transformation, always validated by a rigorous R&D process, is the common thread that unites everything we do.
1. Friction Division: From Raw Metal to Precision Braking
It all started here.
Our ability to see the potential in by-products made us a world leader in non-ferrous additives. This journey begins with metal shavings, passes through exhaustive analysis in our laboratories, and culminates in the safety and comfort of the most advanced braking systems.
- The Raw Material: It all begins with the selection and processing of raw materials and metallic by-products, the first step in creating value.
- Lab & R&D: In our laboratories, each particle is analyzed and optimized to guarantee the exact properties demanded by the industry.
- The Final Application: Our additives become an essential component that ensures exceptional performance, durability, and comfort in the final application.
2. Reinforcement Division: From Fiber to the Foundation of the Future
Our experience taught us that the same logic of transformation could be applied to other sectors. Thus, what began as a synergy is now a complete division that reinforces some of the most demanding infrastructures, always under the supervision of our construction laboratory.
- The Raw Material: The process begins with high-quality raw materials, such as steel wire or polymers, the basis for our high-performance fibers.
- Lab & R&D: We characterize and validate the behavior of our fibers in concrete specimens, ensuring that each solution meets the highest standards of strength and durability.
- The Final Application: Our additives become an essential component that ensures exceptional performance, durability, and comfort in the final application.
3. Energy Division: From Chemical Powder to the Battery of Tomorrow
The latest chapter in our evolution takes us to the heart of the energy transition.
Applying our deep experience in materials science, we transform basic chemical compounds into advanced materials that are key to the next generation of energy storage systems.
- The Precursors: The journey to the energy of the future begins at the molecular level, with the formulation and synthesis of high-purity chemical compounds.
- Lab & R&D: Using advanced techniques, we characterize the structure and performance of our materials to ensure their suitability for cutting-edge energy applications.
- The Energy Future: These powders become active materials for anodes, such as LTO, essential components that will enable batteries with faster charging, greater safety, and a longer lifespan.
This three-act visual journey, from raw material to final application, is the essence of RIMSA.
Forty years later, we remain true to our calling: rethinking materials to build, move, and energize the future.
