The Ceramer productline was developed by Hoechst AG and introduced into the market in 1998 by Ticona (since 2013 Celanese). The manufacturing process on industrial scale is well-established. Ceramer products have a broad application spectrum in the polymer and coating industry as well as semi-finished parts.

In order to fully develop the market potential in all application areas and to further explore new application possibilities, in May 2003 Ceramer GmbH was founded jointly by Ticona, Prof. Hans-Werner Schmidt, Chair of Macromolecular Chemistry at the University of Bayreuth and Nikolaus Helbig, responsible for financial and legal issues.
