Lead Time Reduced at IPS Adhesives
DURHAM, N.C. – Delivery lead times are being reduced for Integra Adhesives and SCIGRIP products, according to parent company IPS Adhesives.
Integra Adhesive brand products are returning to a two-week lead time on new orders. SCIGRIP bulk adhesives in drums and pails will be at 3-week lead time, while cartridges remain on a 4-week lead time.
Both Integra and SCIGRIP lead times slowed in 2020 due to consolidation efforts between two facilities in North America. The operation and customer service teams worked diligently over the past 90 days to make internal changes to improve delivery times.
IPS Adhesives is aware of several shortages and supply chain issues occurring in early 2021. In an effort to minimize these disruptions to our customers, the company has strategically procured ahead in key areas of raw materials.
Scott McDowell, President IPS Adhesives said, “Delivery and fulfillment of quality adhesives are a top priority for us,” said Scott McDowell, IPS Adhesives president. “We understand how critical it is for our customers to reliably receive IPS Adhesives products on time with good quality. We are excited to be able to serve our customer with quicker delivery times again.”
