Rethinking Thermoset Resins:
Eliminating Toxicity and Reducing Oil Dependency
The Problem with Traditional Thermoset Resins
For decades, the thermoset resin industry has been heavily reliant on petrochemical-based materials, which consume limited oil resources and introduce toxicity at multiple stages of the value chain, from raw material sourcing to manufacturing and end-use.
At Michelin ResiCare, we take a different approach.
We do not use toxic or hazardous monomers in our resin formulations. Our goal is to eliminate toxicity from phenolic and other thermoset resins across the entire value chain, protecting suppliers, operators, and end-users alike while contributing to a more sustainable industrial future.

Our Safer, Biosourced Alternatives
We believe that safer chemistry is possible and necessary for every industry.
Our Araminolic resins are designed to:
- Reduce environmental impact and CO₂ emissions
- Reduce the hidden impacts of toxicity, avoiding carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks
- Minimize reliance on fossil fuels
- Support circular and responsible chemistry
