Drytac Breathes Life In To TENEKA-Folien
Tuesday 02. November 2010 - Acquisition of German Book Covering Company Expands Drytacs Product Portfolio
Drytac Europe Ltd, adhesive coater/manufacturer of products for the graphics finishing and display industry, has recently acquired assets of TENEKA-Folien, an 80-year old German brand which specialises in the production of book covering films and other specially self adhesive products.
“For Drytac, this acquisition was a natural, sensible purchase”, said Drytac President Marc Oosterhuis. “Drytac is always exploring new markets for its range of pressure sensitive and heat activated adhesives and over laminates. The strong TENEKA brand name, proprietary proven adhesive formulations and specialist converting equipment, such as core-less rewinders, allows Drytac to expand into the book covering and other specialty markets.”
Arne Petersen, former Managing Director of TENEKA-Folien, has joined Drytac Europe as the Sales Manager for the TENEKA brand and he is excited about the opportunities ahead. “The reaction from customers has been very positive. They did not change suppliers in the hopes that TENEKA would come back to life again. Weve already received several large orders from current and new customers and have only just begun this new chapter of TENEKA”.
TENEKAs products are characterised by high quality proprietary permanent and removable adhesive formulations, that combined with the highest quality European PVC and Polypropylene films, make a truly worldwide renowned product on the market today.
