Ball Ground custom packages two component aircraft sealants into pre-mixed and frozen cartridges. The pre-mixed and frozen packaging process includes: thoroughly blending two-component aircraft sealants, degassing them to remove entrapped air and then freezing the sealant in a disposable syringe or cartridge. These containers are then packed in dry ice and shipped directly to the customer's facility where they can be stored safely and conveniently in a freezer at -40°C. The acquired business will be integrated into and operate under the name Royal Adhesives & Sealants LLC.
“The acquisition of the Ball Ground business is a logical step in our strategy to develop a global aircraft sealant business. Graco Supply, who has been our distributor/partner since we entered the aircraft sealant business over ten years ago, has been instrumental in supporting the development of our sealant business,” said Ted Clark, chief executive officer of Royal.
Royal Adhesives & Sealants offers a broad range of specialty formulated products designed to solve complex bonding, laminating and sealing applications across a diverse range of markets including aerospace and defence, construction, specialty packaging, automotive and industrial. The company offers a broad spectrum of customised thermosetting epoxy and urethane, solvent-based and water-based technologies to meet the most demanding adhesive and sealant applications.
