New Delhi: Rymbal, a Space World Group entity and an eco-friendly polyurethane systems manufacturer, operating under Horizon Performance Polyurethane, participated in the India International Footwear Fair (IIFF) 2026, held from August 6–8 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.

At the three-day industry exhibition, Rymbal showcased its polyurethane solutions for footwear applications and engaged with manufacturers, exporters, component suppliers and other stakeholders across the footwear value chain.

Rymbal demonstrated its capabilities in polyurethane systems while understanding the evolving material requirements of footwear manufacturers. Discussions focused on the industry's growing demand for materials that combine performance, durability, and production efficiency with sustainability goals, particularly as manufacturers increasingly evaluate material choices through both functional and environmental considerations.

The company showcased its portfolio of sustainable polyurethane solutions including FluidX, BioSafe and ReNeu, highlighting its work across recyclable materials, bio-based raw materials and advanced recycling technologies. Together, these solutions reflect Rymbal’s focus on advancing innovative material technologies that support the footwear industry’s transition towards more circular and efficient manufacturing, without compromising on the performance expected from polyurethane-based products.

A key focus of the event was ReNeu - Rymbal’s proprietary chemical recycling technology, which depolymerizes polyurethane waste to recover raw materials that can be further used in the synthesis of new PU products. This unique innovation enables 93% of the recovered PU waste to be reutilized and reintroduced into the manufacturing cycle, helping close the material loop and reduce the need for virgin raw materials. ReNeu formed a major part of the company's broader focus on advancing circularity and resource efficiency across the polyurethane value chain.

At Rymbal, we’re deeply committed to developing innovative solutions that ensure product performance while advancing sustainability and circularity in the polyurethane landscape. The response at the fair reinforced the growing demand for such material innovations across the industry.”

Rymbal works with leading footwear manufacturers across India, and continues to focus on product development and research across polyurethane chemistry for diverse footwear applications. Through its unique solutions and technical expertise, the company is empowering manufacturers to develop high-performance products that meet evolving consumer demands.
