With roots dating back over 125 years, Paramelt today is a specialty supplier of wax blends, adhesives and dispersions all around the world. Operating from manufacturing sites in the Netherlands, UK, the US and China we work together in a dedicated team of over 500 employees to deliver effective solutions for our customers. Paramelt is part of the German family-owned Ter Group. We are active in many end-use applications ranging from packaging, cosmetics and food coatings to materials for aerospace, thermostats, tires and even prosthetics. We develop and produce waxes, adhesives and dispersions that are formulated to precisely match our customer’s critical performance requirements. In all our areas of activity, we are committed to reliably deliver, consistently high-quality solutions, bringing real benefits to our customers’ products and processes. Many of our key markets are inherently specialized, requiring our people to be highly knowledgeable and innovative in technology and operations to support our customers. In our core applications, Paramelt is widely acknowledged as market leader, while still retaining our flexibility, responsiveness and service. Stability over the long term, combined with a culture of partnership, has allowed us to build strong relationships based on trust and commitment with our customers. While much of the business is managed by a team of highly trained and motivated staff, we also choose to operate through a global network of specialized agents and distributors. Our partners are selected to complement our own capabilities and together mean that we can effectively support our customers worldwide.
