Power Adhesives, a distributor in hot melt adhesive technology, has announced an expansion of its distribution network in the United States. The restructure is designed to meet increasing demand for Tecbond adhesives and Tec applicators, while ensuring customers benefit from faster delivery, localized expertise, and specialized technical support.

The supply network introduces three key distribution partners across the US, each with exclusive areas of expertise alongside stocking Power Adhesives’ core product range.

Applied Adhesives, an adhesives solutions provider known for its cost-in-use approach and delivering efficiency savings across multiple sectors, will stock the full range of Tecbond hot melt adhesives and Tec applicators and has been appointed as the exclusive US distributor for Tecbond biodegradable hot melt adhesives.

Specialist advanced bonding solutions provider, GLS Products will also stock the full Tecbond adhesive and applicator range and has been appointed the exclusive US distributor for Casttec, which is Power Adhesives’ hot melt adhesive system for precast concrete.

New Star Adhesives, an innovator with over 70 years’ combined experience in adhesives, composites, veneers, infusion processes, and environmental applications, has been confirmed as the exclusive US distributor for Vactac, the hot melt repositioning adhesive system for vacuum-infused composites.

Through this expanded network, US customers will gain access to technical knowledge, local customer service, and faster delivery times, all backed by the ongoing support of the Power Adhesives team.

Ross Cunningham, recently appointed Chief Executive Officer at Power Adhesives, says: “As demand for Tecbond adhesives and applicators continues to grow across the US, this restructure ensures our customers receive the very best service.

“By working with Applied Adhesives, GLS Products, and New Star Adhesives, we are partnering with experts who share our commitment to technical excellence and customer support. This expanded network means faster delivery, local expertise, and greater access to our growing portfolio of innovative hot melt adhesive solutions.”

The strengthened US distribution network reflects Power Adhesives’ long-term commitment to supporting customers worldwide with high-quality, high-performance adhesive systems tailored to their specific applications.
