Partnership from the outset and throughout the whole process
Choosing, buying and using adhesives, coatings and sealants represents a critical process for which you rightly expect the most responsive and knowledgeable support.
The fact that we focus on supplying these materials – together with the associated dispensing, mixing, surface preparation and curing equipment and our highly proficient technical and applications advice – means that we closely support you not only in the selection, evaluation and application of materials, but in your entire assembly process. Your benefits extend from our initial understanding of your needs, working with you to establish your production process, implementation and ongoing technical support, to the timely supply of materials where and when you need them. This has made us a partner whom our customers have depended on for nearly 40 years.
