Formerra, a recognized leader in the distribution of high-performance materials, has formalized an agreement with Epaflex S.r.l., becoming the preferred distributor of the company’s thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) lines in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. This new pact is based on Formerra’s outstanding expertise in regulatory compliance, particularly concerning the UK and European Union REACH regulations, as well as its ability to provide local technical and logistical support.
The partnership aims to integrate three decades of innovation in TPU manufacturing from Epaflex, thereby enabling process engineers and procurement managers to access these high-quality materials. The need for efficient, high-performance solutions is particularly critical in industrial sectors such as wires and cables, automation, and oil and gas.
Ronan Kennedy, Managing Director of Formerra Europe, emphasized the importance of this agreement, which opens up significant opportunities for processors in the region. This will allow them to access advanced TPUs more swiftly, with the necessary technical support. Epaflex is recognized for its formulations such as Epamould, Epaline, and Epamet, which offer high abrasion resistance and flexibility, ideal for critical applications in the industry.
Meanwhile, Andrea Martignoni, Global Strategic Marketing Director of Elastomers at Epaflex, expressed her satisfaction with this collaboration, seeing it as a significant advance in their strategy for expansion in the UK and Ireland. She stated that Formerra’s expertise and service-oriented approach position them as the ideal partner to introduce Epaflex’s innovation to manufacturers in this part of Europe.
With this agreement, Formerra strengthens its position in the European market, not only by offering exceptional products but also by providing expert regulatory support and prompt assistance for demanding applications. This partnership reaffirms the company’s commitment to delivering comprehensive solutions to its clients across various industries.
