Global producer of high-purity cellulose specialties
Rayonier Advanced Materials (RYAM) is a global producer of high-purity cellulose specialties and natural polymers used in products such as pharmaceuticals and LCD screens. It emerged in 2014 when the original Rayonier split into two companies; RYAM took the specialty performance fibers business from that restructure. It turns cellulose into specialty fibers and other natural polymers through processing operations that convert wood pulp into high-purity cellulose derivatives used by manufacturers in various high-tech and healthcare applications. RYAM differentiates itself from competitors by focusing on purified cellulose specialties on a global scale and supplying engineered fiber materials rather than broad forest products. Its goal is to provide consistent, specialized cellulose-based materials that meet the needs of specific industries, enabling products from medicines to display screens.
