More Than a Supplier
As industries evolve, so do the demands placed on materials. We are ready to meet these challenges through custom development, sustainable innovation and partnerships built to last. We are proud to be more than a supplier: we are part of your team, working toward your product’s success.
Who We Are
Over the past three decades, CARDINAL has evolved from a small, local supplier into a trusted regional partner, valued for technical competence, flexibility and long-term client support. We are a leading provider of specialized polymer and thermoplastic elastomer compounds, dedicated to transforming ideas into reality with precision, innovation and sustainability. We develop materials for manufacturers across Eastern and Central Europe, offering tailored solutions that meet the demands of today’s dynamic market.
What We Do
We manufacture compounds ranging from high-performance materials for complex technical applications, to reliable cost-effective solutions. Both our time-tested formulations and custom-developed materials address the evolving needs of industries such as cables, construction, electronics, footwear, agriculture and beyond. Our vast portfolio of compounds includes rigid PVC, plasticized PVC, PVC+NBR alloy, SBS, SEBS, PP, PS, EVA as well as bio-based materials. Every formulation is developed with attention to performance, compliance and processing efficiency.
Our Values
We build relationships that go beyond transactions. We always act in our client’s best interest, recommending solutions that truly fit their needs, even when they require extra effort. You can count on honest advice, clear communication and a partnership grounded in trust and long-term commitment.
Honesty and Integrity
We focus on meaningful innovation by improving formulations, refining processes and exploring sustainable alternatives that bring measurable value to our clients. Every new development starts with real application needs and ends with a product that performs better, lasts longer, or makes the process simpler.
Purposeful Innovation
From sampling to final delivery, reliability defines how we work. We commit to clear timelines, consistent quality and transparent support before, during and after production. That’s why clients stay with us year after year.
Reliability in Every Step
Protecting people and the environment is essential, not optional. Our solutions are designed with health and safety in mind, ensuring responsible handling, compliance and peace of mind throughout the product lifecycle.
Safety-driven Mindset
Supporting Industry Transitions
In addition to established compound families, we develop bio-based and compostable materials for clients pursuing sustainable alternatives. These compounds are supported by full compliance documentation and technical assistance, helping manufacturers transition smoothly while meeting increasingly strict regulatory and market expectations.
Where We Work
Our production site and headquarters are located in Bucharest, Romania, with compounds delivered to customers across Eastern and Central Europe. We serve both multinational manufacturers and specialized regional producers.
