“Today we are announcing Insulectro will acquire ECEMS headquartered in New Hampshire,” Insulectro President and CEO Patrick Redfern commented, “This is an exciting opportunity to bring new complimentary product lines into Insulectro’s robust material offerings and to continue the distribution chain of East Coast Electronic Material Supply.”
ECEMS is a regional Distributor for DuPont Process Chemicals and Imaging Film (Utah and eastward), Hubbard Hall waste treatment chemicals, AGFA Silver Film, Kyocera Drills, and All4PCB handling and manufacturing equipment. They also offer drill entry and backer material, lubricated press sheets, and a variety of drill room products, plus, opportunities in chemical milling, and general metal finishing.
ECEMS President John Robinson praises the acquisition, “ECEMS and Insulectro share a similar culture to enable our customers to build better boards, faster. All of our customers can expect to benefit from greater synergies as the respective companies’ strengths and talents are blended. I look forward to new opportunities created by this action.” Robinson will join the Insulectro team as Vice President of Chemistry reporting to Ken Parent, Vice President of Sales and Product Management.
Parent commented, “We welcome John and his team to Insulectro. This acquisition is an important one for our company. Among the other offerings, the DuPont chemistry line significantly advances Insulectro’s goal to offer a complete roster of materials used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards. We continue to enjoy a long-term relationship with DuPont, as distributor for flexible laminates and dry film in North America, and this merger allows us to further serve our best-in-class supplier’s needs while expanding service to customers – existing and new. “
“We look forward to continuing distribution of non-competitive products previously offered by ECEMS,” Patrick Redfern continued, “The ECEMS team will be joining our teammates in our Londonderry, New Hampshire, distribution center while taking advantage of our company’s 11 stocking locations in North America.”
“Expect to hear more from us about this exciting new market opportunity for Insulectro and its customers” Ken Parent concluded, “World-class products from world-class suppliers, delivered at breakneck speed from regional distribution centers, coupled with ‘always there’ customer service – it really is about enabling customers to build better circuits faster.”
