Spandex expands with new acquisition

Specialists in the sign industry, French company Spandex has expanded its operations with the acquisition of Seri Service.

Also based in France, Seri Service is a family-run business with 36 years of experience reselling self-adhesive media as well as materials and presses for heat transfer onto textiles.

Founders Claire and Thierry Teillout will remain with the business along with the warehouse and back office teams. The firm also offers additional services including cutting of roll media and production of bespoke banners. 

Spandex France supplies solutions to the sign, graphics and display industries and will work with Seri Service to integrate the operations of both businesses across the combined customer base.

Denis Bourgeois, general manager of Spandex France says: “For our customers in France, the integration of Spandex with Seri Service will mean even stronger service and access to a diverse range of high quality products, with the backing of an enlarged team with deep sector experience. Through this latest acquisition, we are confident that we can enhance our offering and continue to develop Spandex’s position in the French market.”

Guido Moresi, Spandex vice president comments: “Seri Service has earned a strong reputation for product choice and quality of service in all four key market segments for Spandex – signage, vehicle wrap, décor and textile. The addition of Seri Service to the group will extend our ability to serve the needs of customers across France, particularly in Lyon and the wider Rhône-Alpes region, while also expanding the range of self-adhesive products available to customers of Seri Service and Spandex.”

Thierry Teillout of Seri Service concludes: “We are delighted to be part of Spandex, a move that will benefit both existing and new customers of Seri Service. Current customers won’t see any changes to their day-to-day dealings with us initially, as both companies will continue to operate independently. However, they will ultimately have access to an extended product portfolio and enhanced customer service. We look forward to the future as a Spandex company.”
