Biesterfeld Spezialchemie Joins Forces with Scott Bader
Company News
Biesterfeld Spezialchemie, an international distributor of specialty chemical products, pharma, and food ingredients, and UK-headquartered chemicals company Scott Bader, entered into a new partnership.
The global manufacturer has secured Biesterfeld Spezialchemie’s support within two segments – CASE and Performance Products – across different regions, where the group will take its resins, gelcoats, and acrylic dispersions to market. Specifically focusing on Scott Bader’s composite and adhesives range, as well as functional polymers used widely in coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers (CASE), Biesterfeld Spezialchemie will be working with customers across a number of industrial markets on Scott Bader’s behalf – covering everything from building and construction to land transportation and pipe relining.
“The alignment between the two companies was clear from the start,” says Scott Bader’s Sales and Marketing Director, Marie Elliot. “As a long-standing, family-owned business with like-minded values the partnership makes perfect sense in terms of their capability and moral commitment. We have every confidence that Biesterfeld Spezialchemie can impeccably represent Scott Bader’s interests in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and look forward to leveraging their connections on the ground.”
“We're thrilled to offer Scott Bader's exceptional composites portfolio, featuring top-of-the-line polyester resins, gelcoats, and adhesives that are specifically designed for the marine and railway industries, among others,” says Dr. Johannes Martin, Product Manager. “Their unique fire, smoke and toxicity fume (FST) system Crestafire, for example, sets them apart in the rail industry, providing added safety and reliability to our customers.”
Biesterfelds Spezialchemie’s CASE segment offers additives for coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers for a broad spectrum of applications and has a specialist sales team represented all over Europe.
“We are very excited about the new collaboration with Scott Bader. The products from Scott Bader complement our portfolio very well and allow us even more scope and possibilities,” says Saadet Bozat, Product Manager at Biesterfeld Spezialchemie.
On the composites side, Biesterfeld Spezialchemie will be responsible for Scott Bader’s premium Crestafire FST resins and Crestapol urethane acrylate resins, as well as its Crystic resins and gelcoats, Crestomer urethane acrylate structural adhesives and Crestafix bonding pastes and will be responsible for the DACH region. In parallel, Biesterfeld Spezialchemie’s CASE segment will drive sales of Scott Bader’s Texipol rheology modifiers, Crestacryl solvent acrylic resins, Crestakyd alkyd resins and Texicryl acrylic dispersions and will be responsible for DACH, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Spain, Portugal, and the Baltic States.
