To better support the growth requirements of global customers, and present a more unified product offering, French company Eleco Produits – EFD, specialising in industrial adhesives, dispensing and UV curing equipment, is changing its name to Eleco Panacol – EFD effective 1st August 2019.

Since the beginning, Eleco has been partnering with German adhesives manufacturer Panacol-Elosol, distributing UV, structural and conductive adhesives. Inhouse laboratories for quality control and adhesive applications allow in-depth testing and qualified consultation.

Since 2008, Eleco has also been distributing matching UV curing equipment from new parent company Dr. Hoenle.

Effective quality control methods ensure high quality products, packaging and transport. Eleco is certified to ISO 9001 standards.

The focus of Eleco Panacol – EFD will remain on the sales of innovate industrial adhesives and equipment from its facility in Genevilliers/Paris. The organisation’s management and team will remain intact.
