TECHSiL has announced the acquisition of Viking Industrial Products, a UK-based distributor of tapes and adhesives. This acquisition will benefit both businesses, broadening their product ranges and strengthening TECHSiL's market reach and UK position.
Founded in 1989, Viking Industrial Products is a successful family-run business with a strong value-add proposition that includes deep technical knowledge; product customisation; quality assurance and excellent customer service. It has established itself as 3M's primary e-commerce partner for high quality tapes, adhesives and abrasives and one of their premium UK distribution partners.
The product offering from Viking Industrial Products includes masking and packaging tapes, specialist printed tapes, hazard warning tapes, contact and two-part adhesives, abrasives and flooring tapes. It serves customers across the aerospace, automotive, metal working, contracting and printing industries.
Chris Dilley, Managing Director of TECHSiL, said: "The Viking business model is a strong cultural and strategic fit with TECHSiL. I am grateful to the Bennett family, who have built a very successful business, and I am pleased that Colin will remain with the business in the short term to support this transition.
"Viking will continue to operate under the same name, from the same location and with the same employees and I'm looking forward to seeing what more we can achieve together."
