Welcome to Techsil's Summer Newsletter! 

What excitement we've all witnessed in the past few weeks as the UK tries to come to terms, both politically and economically, with the Brexit fallout.
 
As usual, Techsil is bucking the trend, and while others are clamouring to get out of the commercial property sector causing fund managers to close their schemes, we have just made a major investment and acquired the building we've been trading from since our big move 3 years ago.
 
For us, this demonstrates some sanity, surety and stability in all the madness and will give us more freedom and flexibility to continue our expansion into the future, regardless what the Politicians throw at us.
 
Hopefully, we can all show the so called 'leaders' some leadership, so let's keep trading, keep building, keep manufacturing and keep our heads.

In this issue:
- Techsil Launch New Soldering Range from MG Chemicals
- New Light Curable Adhesive with Range of Viscosities
- Case Study: Adhesive Foam Tape from call to despatch took 15 minutes!
- Momentive Extends Range of Silicones for LED Lighting
- Thermal Management Materials - Techsil's Top 6!
- UV Light Systems for Post Cure of SLA 3D Printed Parts

Vitralit® 7311 is resistant to alcohols and humidity and is transparent and non-yellowing. Once cured the adhesive is viscoplastic.

Case Study: Adhesive Foam Tape Seals the Deal 

The world of tapes can be a confusing one - a multitude of options are available with different adhesions; performance abilities; functions, not to mention thicknesses, widths and compositions. In this case study Techsil worked with Corporate Engineering Ltd, specialists in odour control covers.

At Techsil the chains of command are short and the ability to work with both speed and flexibility provide a direct benefit to customers. In this example the customer was provided with their solution on the first phone call to Techsil. Within 15 minutes of the call ending the bespoke listing was not only live on Techsil's website and ready to order, but due to the time urgency, the rolls were cut to size ready for despatch as soon as the order came through. The rolls were despatched on a next day courier service which provides the customer with a 1-hour delivery window notification.

Techsil supply UV flood lamps, spot curing systems and UV light curing chambers for bench top applications or automated production lines.
