European Plexus Manufacturing Facility
Introduction to Shannon MMA Manufacturing Facility
Hi All, I’m pleased to announce the commencement of the production of Plexus Structural Adhesives at our facility in Shannon, Ireland. We are currently producing the MA300 & MA310 1:1 adhesives & activator for both the European & Asian market.
Previously the products were manufactured in the US at our plant in Danvers, MA & shipped to Shannon to be down packed to pails & cartridges for our European & Asian customer base. The filling operation will remain the same but the manufacturing facility has given us improved stock control mechanisms, especially crucial for the short shelf life products & this mechanism will enhance product quality & further product development. All this will be beneficial to our customers as it will allow us to have greater reactivity to customer demands & greater control of the product quality.
The manufacturing facility is also of benefit to our ISO14001 Environmental Management Certification. As we no longer import these products from the US & we source raw materials in the EU reducing our carbon footprint. These practices help build a more environmentally sustainable business model.
It will be our intention to expand & develop our Plexus product portfolio & eventually become self sufficient but until then our European & Asian customers can expect consistency from the European Plexus Manufacturing Facility in both product & service.
