I am looking for a list of international distributors (outside of the
USA) of aerosol adhesives. I am interested in wholesale distribution
specifically. |

Hi stuckup,
I am working on your question and have located several worldwide
directories for suppliers and distributors of aerosol adhesives.
However, I will need to clarify a few things before I continue.
How many suppliers would suffice as an answer to your question? What
information are you interested in for these suppliers? Do you want
telephone numbers, mailing addresses, email addresses etc...?
Are you also interested in manufacturers or should I limit my research
to just suppliers and distributors.
I need to know where you are located, so I can make sure they ship to
your location.
Are there any countries you are particularly interested in?
If there is anything else I need to clarify along the way I will let you know.
Best regards,
Rainbow

Rainbow,
I would like as many directories as are available. We would like
contact names, email addresses, etc. Everything that is available for
me to market internationally.
I am interested in exporting aerosol adhesives from the US and would
like to know who is buying and what they are buying.
Thanks!

Hi stuckup,
Thank you for your clarification.
Here's one directory I would like you to take a look at and let me
know if something this would interest you.
http://www.thomasb2b.com/ENGB/adhesives/adhesives-aerosol/index.html
Clicking on the name of the company will give you the available
contact information.
Waiting to hear your views.
Best regards,
Rainbow

Rainbow,
Unfortunately this link leads to a somewhat easily accessible list
that is comprised mostly of adhesive manufacturers and/or foreign
subsidiaries of US based companies.
I am not interested in the any manufacturers - I would like lists of
distributors who buy from the manufacturers and resell the product.

stuckup-ga,
I like the name!
As you've no doubt found already -- and as rainbow-ga's work has
confirmed -- the sort of lists your looking for, though it seems they
should be available, are pretty tough to ferret out.
One good source that I'm aware of produces some reasonably good lists,
though they tend to mix in manufacturers with pure distribution
outfits. Nonetheless, they may be your best source of leads. Have a
look at:
http://www.kellysearch.com/results.asp?search-type=prodcat&search-location=qz&search-text=%22spray+adhesives%22
and let me know if any of the directory lists on this page would suit
your purposes. (Note that it's a worldwide list, and includes US
companies, but you can select individual regions -- e.g. Europe --
from the pull down menu near the top of the page).
And if these lists don't work for you, let us know a bit more
precisely what sort of lists you need.
Thanks.

Pafalafa-ga,
Believe me ? I know this stuff is hard to find! The link you provided
is headed more in the right direction, but it does have several
manufacturers mixed in. The following link is more specifically what
I?m looking for, but this is US based. I?m interested in international
distributors, especially in Japan, France, UK, Italy, Canada,
Netherlands and Ireland.
http://www.thomasregional.com/nsearch.html?us=4166ae9e30cf6&what=adhesive&heading=41&ctype=dst
For example, perhaps a product like 3M?s Super 77 is made in the US;
who purchases it in Japan?
Thanks, and good luck!

Hi stuckup,
How about something like this:
http://www.alibaba.com/companies/0/company.html
Type in adhesives, select wholesale/distributor and then select the
country of your choice.
Regards,
Rainbow

Here's another:
http://www.chemindustry.com/chem2ask.asp?cmd=search&id=0
Under 'Search the chemical world' type in "aerosol adhesives".
Although it also includes the US, it distinguishes between
manufacturer and distributor at the top of each entry.
Let me know if these suit your purpose.
Best regards,
Rainbow

stuckup-ga,
Thanks for the feedback. You've got me and rainbow-ga hot on the
trail, so the odds are good we'll come up with something that meets
your needs.
On question about the Thomas Regional link you provided -- it looks to
me like a list of general adhesives suppliers, rather than those that
specifically include aersol adhesives in their product mix.
Of course, many (most?) of the adhesives suppliers will have aerosols
as well. So, is a general list of non-US adhesives
suppliers/distributors what you're looking for?
Let us know, and we'll see what we can do.

Yes, a general list of non-US adhesives suppliers/distributors with
contact names, email addresses, etc. Everything that is available for
me to market internationally.
Thanks!

Hi stuckup,
Did you get a chance to take a look at the last two sites I posted?
Let me know if they are what you are looking for.
Best regards,

The alibaba link is pretty good, but I was hoping for a more
complete/compiled list. For example, with the chemindustry link one
can search and get a list of distributors, but you can't search for
just international distributors. When you try to search by country,
you can't search for a specific category.
Thanks again!
