The Business Unit that gave rise to Athon started its activities together with A&S Technologies, between the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017. The company emerged within the OCQ group as a large mover and processor of silicone-based products, mainly to produce sealants. In this context, some professionals started to work on building the business around products aimed at the industrial segment – developing suppliers of raw materials and creating a production structure for formulations, fractionation, and packaging of products. At that time, the company’s name itself was the adopted brand, gradually gaining trust and respect of the market due to the high level of service and products offered.
After 5 years of intense work and great achievements, in 2022 we launched Athon brand, a new visual identity created to translate the spirit of innovation and agility that are the basis of the operation of our Business Unit.
Athon is the Brand created to identify A&S Technologies’ Business Unit focused on raw materials, mainly silicone-based products. A&S is a Company of Oswaldo Cruz Química Group.
A team of experienced market professionals with one mission: provide customers with the best product for the right application. Its laboratories and manufacturing unit enables the development and adjustment of formulated products that specifically meet market needs.

Athon, as the brand and identity of a business unit, has economic, social and environmental responsibility as the tripod of its performance.
The permanent search for the health of the business, seeking the best products at the fairest price, is the basis for sustaining its long-term performance. Always seeking to serve customers in a fair and competent manner for the perpetuation of the business.
Valuing the individual person as internal employees, third parties or service providers, is a constant concern – the ultimate goal of all economic activity is the well-being of people.
Environment is the vital space of the whole society. And every business must adapt to a minimum impact on this universal asset.
Sustainable development is one of the pillars for our growth and the basis for our commitment to our customers, employees and future generations.
We seek a balanced relationship with the environment as a whole, organizing our production process and respecting natural resources and social development in our community.
We believe that all processes impact and are also impacted by human action, so care and continuous improvement are part of our work philosophy, in which everyone contributes to sustainable growth and respect for the different life forms.
