H&R Johnsons used to own Norcros, they are far from new to the game. They've been very close to Norcros (BAL and Dunlop) ever since and I think now they have taken the name Norcros back or something? (I think they had to wait for years before they can trade under the name, and now's their chance). They may not at the moment be touching BAL's rep and quality but I have a good feeling about them.

As Head of Technical Services for Norcros Adhesives I am able to provide some background information regarding our company.

The Norcros Group, which also owns H&R Johnson Tiles & Triton Showers in the U.K were owners of Building Adhesives Ltd (BAL & Dunlop) up until 2001 when they sold the company to Ardex.

A condition of the sale was that Norcros was excluded from the U.K tile adhesive market for a period of 3 years. That exclusion expired at the end of 2004 and over the course of the past 18 months myself and a group of my former colleagues have returned to Norcros and established a new tile adhesive company. Between us we have many years experience in the tile adhesives business.

We commenced trading in August last year and I am pleased to say that business is good, our products being used on projects such as several Ferrari Garages in the U.K, Catterick Garrison, Colchester Barracks & Dubai International airport.

We are currently trading under 2 brands, namely Norcros and Johnson Professional.

Our head office contacts are:

Technical helpline: 0870 609 2851
Sales: 01782 524 140
E-mail: technical@norcros-adhesives.com
Website (currently under construction): www.norcros-adhesives.com

The website provides information on both the Johnson & Norcros product ranges, including product data and msds sheets.

Hi Mandy,
sorry about this, please don't take this personally, but I had the displeasure recently of using some Norcross tub adhesive recently - blue lid. It was probably the worst adhesive I have ever used. A large majority of it fell off the wall as I was trowelling it on. The adhesive was customer suppiled. Never again.

Their factory on the H & R site in Stoke started production earlier this year and is almost up to speed. (I am a raw material supplier). Not sure who was manufacturing it for them beforehand.
