West System Six10 back in distribution in EMEA after ‘challenging’ year

Wessex Resins & Adhesives has advised that its West System Six10 thickened epoxy adhesive is back in distribution in Europe, the Middle East and Africa following supply issues.

“After a challenging year trying to source the specialised single cartridge, we are delighted to be able to resume offering this to our distribution channels in Europe, Middle East and Africa,” says Sam Oliver operations director, at Romsey, UK, based Wessex Resins & Adhesives.

The West System Six 10 thickened epoxy adhesive comes with ‘point-and-shoot convenience’ facilitated by its single cartridge design which incorporates two moulded chambers that separate the pre-thickened resin and hardener and allow accurate dispensing at the correct mix ratio. An interchangeable co-axial mixing wand is said to ensure thorough blending of the two components and precision application of the adhesive.

The company says epoxy users already familiar with its West System product range will appreciate the convenience and cleanliness of West System Six10, which saves time and excess waste.

Oliver adds: “All our customers recognise that the West System product range is unparalleled in what it delivers. They also know that the team is always on hand ready to share knowledge and tips at any given moment, we are available by phone, email or at the many exhibitions we attend.”

West System epoxy was created by Gougeon Brothers Inc. in 1969. Wessex Resins manufactures the products under license from Gougeon Brothers in UK.
