TACOMA, Wash., March 23, 2012 - General Plastics Manufacturing Company has named Industrial Adhesive Solutions Ltd. (INDASOL), its distributor of high-density, polyurethane foam sign-making and modeling boards in the United Kingdom. Under the agreement, INDASOL will supply customers in the U.K. with General Plastics' signature LAST-A-FOAM® brand foam, distributed under the Sign-Block name.
"We are very pleased to welcome INDASOL to our international distributor team," announced President Bruce Lind. "They were selected due to their understanding of the sign-making and adhesive marketplaces, and the complementary products they offer. As an extension of our company, we count on our distributors to know their markets and their customers."
To kick off this collaboration, General Plastics and INDASOL will be exhibiting jointly at the United Kingdom's premier visual communications event, the Sign & Digital UK show, March 27-29, 2012. The companies will be showcasing Sign-Block's versatility at stand J74 in the National Exhibition Centre.
"We are looking forward to officially launching Sign-Block at this year's show," said INDASOL Co-Director Paul Robinson. "We have already received overwhelming interest from existing and potential customers who understand the benefits of using such a product in 3-D signage and display applications."
Sign-Block is a fine-cell-structure, high-density polyurethane foam that allows for easy finishing with nearly any coating system. This foam can also be bonded using a wide variety of adhesive systems. It is available in densities ranging from 160 to 288 kg per cubic meter, and in a wide range of sheet sizes and thicknesses. Sign-Block is readily finished or painted. Whether carved, routed, sandblasted or machined, it is ideal wherever a uniform, grain-free, long-lasting and dimensionally stable material is desired.
