Trusted brands, same team, same commitment to customers — now backed by a scale platform for growth.
IPS Adhesives today announced it has joined Matrix Adhesives Group, a leading global manufacturer of adhesive solutions. The partnership brings together IPS Adhesives trusted brands — including SCIGRIP®, Integra Adhesives®, Unika®, and Arjay® — with Matrix’s scale, resources, and manufacturing platform.
“Joining Matrix represents an exciting milestone for the IPS Adhesives team,” said Scott McDowell, President of IPS Adhesives.
“Our associates have worked tirelessly to create a company that is widely recognized for its broad suite of products, trusted brands, and passion for solving our customers’ toughest bonding challenges. Becoming part of the Matrix family will allow us to preserve our strong market position in MMA solutions, while gaining the scale, resources, and global platform to support our growth plans. I couldn’t be more excited about what this partnership means for our customers, our team, and our future.”
IPS Adhesives brings deep expertise in structural adhesive technology and color-matching solutions, serving the building and construction, transportation, industrial, marine, and architectural surfacing (countertop) markets. The partnership strengthens the ability to deliver differentiated, value-added bonding solutions across these industries — from structural Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) adhesives to decorative surfacing products.
For customers, distributors, and partners, it’s business as usual: the same products, the same technical expertise, and the same people you’ve built relationships with — now with the backing of a larger, well-resourced organization committed to long-term investment in the technologies IPS Adhesives is known for. IPS Adhesives looks forward to continuing to support customers across the UK, Europe, and North America with the same quality and service they expect, now as part of the Matrix family.
