For over 30 years, WBI has manufactured high-performance liquid coatings for metal, glass, wood and plastic substrates. WBI has built its reputation on timely delivery of customized, optimized products thanks to a dedicated team of production, materials and chemistry experts.
"This acquisition strengthens our liquid coatings capabilities,” highlights David Ades, president of the Protech Group. “It allows us to expand our customer base and offer a great depth of solutions to them.”
“We are thrilled to be handing over our business to the Protech Group as this will ensure continuity to our employees and business partners,” says John Browning, president and owner of WBI.
Acquisitions continue to be part of the Protech Group’s growth strategy. Earlier this year, the Protech Group announced the acquisition of the coatings division of ACG Industrie (Gondecourt, France).
