Azelis to represent Robinson Brothers in Rubber
Azelis announces that they have been appointed distributor to service the Benelux region by Robinson Brothers, the leading UK based fine speciality chemical manufacturer. Azelis will now be able to offer customers the ROBAC range of rubber accelerators and aims to work closely with Robinson Brothers to grow the market in Benelux with these products.
Michel Dumusois, International Business Director Azelis Rubber & Plastics adds: “As one of the few European suppliers with specialist rubber knowledge, Azelis is well placed to increase market penetration with Robinson Brothers’ key range of ROBAC rubber accelerators and offer customers in depth application knowledge helping to improve product performance.”
Quote from Robinson Brothers spokesperson: “Robinson Brothers looks forward to working with Azelis to offer a high quality service, application insight and a range of products that will demonstrate and create value for our Benelux customers.”
The ROBAC business is specifically aimed at the rubber and other polymer manufacturing industries, providing rubber and polymer chemicals which give the compounded polymer its desired physical and dynamic properties.
Effective immediately, initially the agreement covers the Benelux region, but there are plans to extend the agreement to France at the beginning of 2013.
