Technibond was established in 1982 by two founding Directors, Ron Garrett and Mike Harrison. Both had worked in the tape industry for many years, as senior managers of a large International tape company. The UK market then was dominated by very few companies with a limited range of tapes, and quality and service were often poor. Ron and Mike saw an opportunity to bring new, higher quality and high
er performance products to the market, from other European coating companies. They therefore set up Technibond to convert high quality adhesive coated products to industry. At the same time they determined to provide better service, flexibility and delivery than was currently available. To achieve this Technibond would convert its tapes to virtually any size, shape and configuration, with low minimum order sizes, supplied to incredibly short lead times. At the same time we invested in the best equipment, to be efficient and productive and capable of supplying the largest customers as well as the smallest. Company Development
Technibond grew rapidly, and within a few years become a major and respected tape supplier, and the largest UK supplier of double sided foam tapes. A strategic decision was made in 1989 to install our own tape testing laboratory. This took us in a different direction to all of our competitors by reinforcing our quality and delivery with a full technical capability.
