A decade ago, Impermea Material’s parent company DetraPel, Inc., was founded from a spark of curiosity and a commitment to rewriting protection rules. As we commemorate our 10th anniversary, we reflect on our journey, accomplishments, and the incredible advancement that has defined our path.
The Genesis of Innovation
Impermea Materials’ started with the question, “How can we create advanced materials that redefine the capabilities of everyday substrates?” This question ignited a passion for innovation that continues to drive us today. Founder David Zamarin’s vision led to the creation of Impermea Materials, where we set out to explore the boundaries of what’s possible.
From Vision to Reality
Embarking on a decade-long journey, Impermea Materials' parent company has etched its name as a trailblazer in pioneering solutions that redefine performance, safety, and sustainability. From combatting oil and grease susceptibility to engineering moisture barriers and UV resistance, our trajectory has been relentless innovation and boundary-pushing. This commitment to advancement propelled the establishment of Impermea Materials in April 2023, marking a pivotal moment in our evolution. DetraPel, now an integral part of Impermea, ventured into the industrial arena two years prior, a strategic shift that underscores our dedication to providing transformative solutions across diverse sectors. As we stand at the threshold of this new chapter, our journey from vision to reality is only just commencing.

Our paths have been marked by milestones that reflect our dedication to excellence. From the breakthroughs in our laboratory to the tangible impact we’ve had on industries worldwide, every achievement has been a testament to our passion for innovation. Our unwavering pursuit of perfection drives us to create solutions that redefine what’s possible and inspire a future of change.
