About Syntex America

Thermoplastic resin trading with flexible payment terms. Receive your materials first, pay after you sell.

Our Story

2006

Miami, Florida

Syntex America was founded by Luiz Fernando Valente, a Brazilian entrepreneur with deep expertise in international trade and the petrochemical industry. Operations established in Miami, strategically positioned to facilitate trade between producing regions and consuming markets worldwide. Initial focus on thermoplastic resins — PE, PP, and PVC.

2008

Credibility Earned

Rapid growth as Syntex earned a reputation for reliability and flexible payment terms. The company obtained Dun & Bradstreet certification, reinforcing its credibility in international trade and opening doors with larger buyers and producers.

2010

Portfolio Expansion

Expanded the product portfolio to include masterbatches, compounds, and specialty additives. Relationships with major petrochemical producers deepened, establishing reliable supply chains across multiple resin families.

2013

e-Syntex Launches

Creation of e-Syntex, the company's dedicated plastics trading unit. This specialized division streamlined procurement processes and allowed Syntex to offer more competitive pricing and faster delivery times to its growing customer base.

2017

The Green Pivot

Recognizing the global shift toward sustainability, Syntex entered the bioplastics market — adding PHA, PLA, and starch-based resins to its portfolio. Strategic agreements secured with major petrochemical producers for preferential access to production volumes.

2020

Full Diversification

The product range expanded beyond plastics — flat steel products, titanium dioxide, plasticizers, and synthetic rubber joined the portfolio. Syntex transformed from a pure plastics trader into a diversified industrial materials supplier.

2026

Integrated international logistics structure

Structured payment terms up to 120 days

Brazil imported 5.8 million tons of thermoplastic resins in 2024 (Abiplast).

Most structured operations start with a single container. Syntex America works with manufacturers from 25 tons per shipment upward, scaling credit and logistics as the relationship grows.

Every operation includes a confirmed shipping schedule with real-time tracking. Syntex America manages freight, customs, and last-mile delivery door-to-door, with dedicated support at each stage.

Syntex America offers structured payment terms up to 120 days, aligned to the customer's production and sales cycle. Terms are set per operation based on credit approval.

A 2-week resin supply gap can halt an entire production line. Syntex America provides an international sourcing alternative with structured terms, so manufacturers maintain output even when domestic supply is constrained.
