Drytac has confirmed a new distribution deal with Antalis ahead of FESPA 2013, where Antalis will showcase Drytac's products on its stand. The agreement will come into effect on July 8th 2013, from which date Antalis will exclusively distribute Drytac's entire range of films and adhesives in the UK and Ireland.

"We believe that this partnership will hugely benefit our customer base," says Hayden Kelley, managing director, Drytac Europe. "Antalis is an extremely well-established business with excellent and far-reaching distribution channels. Customer support levels in the UK and Ireland will be boosted by the distribution deal and Drytac can now fully focus its resources on what it does best – namely the manufacturing of quality adhesives and over-laminates."

"It gives me an immense amount of pleasure in welcoming the Drytac range of products into our expanding range of top-quality brands," adds Tony Marshall, divisional director at Antalis. "In the short time we have been working with Hayden and his team it is apparent that our companies share many common goals and I'm confident we will enjoy a long-lasting partnership."

Kelley adds that the 'seamless' transition should result in a 'notable improvement in service' for Drytac's existing customers.
