Toray Composite Materials America,

Toray Composite Materials America, Inc. began producing advanced composite materials in 1992 as Toray Composites (America), Inc. (TCA) – incorporated in Pierce County and located adjacent to Boeing’s Composite Manufacturing Center [CMC] – to enable an efficient supply stream of Toray’s carbon fiber composite materials. First used on the Boeing 777, Toray’s Advanced Carbon Fiber composite materials are now incorporated into the 777 and 787 primary structures and will be used on the new 777X wing. CMA’s Tacoma plant supplies a diverse customer base both domestically and internationally and is a major exporter from Washington State. In 1997, CMA’s Decatur plant was established, then known as Toray Carbon Fibers America, Inc. (CFA), – incorporated in Morgan County. CMA Decatur operates production lines from precursor to carbon fiber and has a diverse base of customers in aerospace, defense, industrial, and automotive. Toray Composites (America), Inc. and Toray Carbon Fibers America, Inc. have worked successfully together for 20 years and share the same philosophy and culture, and merging to become CMA. Both companies are accomplished with an enviable track record of providing industry leading solutions for our clients. We believe our successes are a result of our industry leading practices and the knowledge, passion, and total commitment to quality from all our employees. With a nationwide footprint, this allows us to build on our success by utilizing our collective knowledge and expertise, and becoming nimbler and responsive to our customers’ needs by centrally managing our combined production facilities.
