Adhesives specialist, Techsil, a company within the Diploma Group, has acquired the trade and assets of Eurobond Adhesives. Techsil has been aware of Eurobond for some time and says the two companies are a great strategic and cultural fit, sharing similar values, business models and end user markets.

Formed in 1984, Eurobond Adhesives has been a very successful business under the leadership of Simon Dearing, operating with an onus on outstanding customer service and excellent products. However, Simon felt it was the right time to sell the business and find the right trusted partner to help support long-term growth – with the backing of a larger resourced adhesives’ group. 

With a technical sales interface team established to smooth the acquisition, this augments Techsil’s broad technical adhesive offering with the focus on adhesive, potting and thermal management solutions for the manufacturing sector and introduces the company to some attractive new customers and market segments, such as sign, glass and sheet metal bonding, amongst others.

Since 2021, Techsil, which was founded in 1989 with a focus on distribution of technical and high performance silicones, has been part of Diploma’s ‘controls’ business unit, which distributes into the speciality adhesives, wire and cables, interconnect products, and specialty fasteners segments. The company has grown to encompass many more specialist adhesive technologies without losing its core reputation for excellent customer service. The company follows a problem solving engineering and design led approach to finding the right adhesive and sealant solution for its customers.
