NAWAH, the global leader in vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) materials for composites, has begun its first North American manufacturing facility in Englewood, Ohio. The $10 million, 38,000 sq. ft. site — built in close partnership with JobsOhio, the Dayton Development Coalition, and the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) —is among the fastest greenfield builds of its kind in Ohio’s advanced-manufacturing corridor.
The Dayton facility positions NAWAH at the epicenter of American aerospace, defense, and advanced industry — and establishes a strategic Franco-American industrial alliance in a class of materials critical to next-generation sports equipment, aviation, aerospace, and mobility applications.
NAWAH’s Dayton plant illustrates a new model of transatlantic industrial cooperation: French deep-tech innovation — born from pioneering collaboration between the CEA (French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission) and MIT — combined with American advanced-manufacturing scale. As both nations invest in supply-chain resilience for critical materials across defense, aerospace, and energy, NAWAH stands at the intersection of France’s France 2030 industrial sovereignty program and the United States’ reshoring of advanced manufacturing.
