Aoc Aliancys changes European distribution network
February 28, 2020 - United States Of America
Aoc Aliancys has changed the European distribution network for its unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins. Büfa Composite Systems becomes the exclusive distributor of Aoc Aliancys products in the UK, Spain, the Benelux, and Finland. Gaches Chimie Spécialités is the exclusive distributor in France. For Norway and Sweden, Nor-Komp is the exclusive agent.
In Italy, Aoc Aliancys itself will do the distribution for its products. The changes become effective March 3.
In the UK, the change in distribution set-up coincides with the transfer of Aoc (UK) from Aoc Aliancys to Büfa. The new Büfa Composite UK company will be the distributor of both the Aoc Aliancys and Büfa Composite Systems.
Besides distributing its own products in Italy, Aoc Aliancys will also become the distributor of the products from Büfa Composite Systems.
“Already for many years we have enjoyed working together with Büfa Composite Systems and Gaches Chimie,” commented Fons Harbers, vice-president Marketing and Sales EMEA of Aoc Aliancys. “The new collaboration will extend our capabilities and market reach, providing the customers in Europe a much market better access to our products.”
“The products of Aoc Aliancys are known for their quality and performance reliability,” said Lothar Kempf, commercial director, Büfa Composite Systems. “We are very happy that we can now broaden our distribution coverage and in that way take advantage of the synergies in products offered by our two companies.”
“This new collaboration in France is fully in line with the strategy of Gaches to grow in specialties and innovative products,” added Pierre Gaches, president of Gaches Chimie. “We believe the products of Aoc Aliancys are a very nice addition to our portfolio, and will allow our customers in building new markets and applications, growing their long-term competitiveness.”
