More Case Studies

“We’ve moved over from plain EPDM membrane and paste adhesive to CORTEX 0751 EPDM with butyl strip and 0801 termination bar. Not only has this saved us a huge amount of time on site but also ensures a clean application and accurate linear meterage of material estimated and ordered. We would fully recommend this method to other users as we have proved a significant time and cost-saving. - Sean Heywood - North Chesire Windows”
“The staff are all very friendly and have good product knowledge (with any data/product sheets requested provided quickly with no hassle).  We find the prices to be very competitive with discounts offered for bulk orders. Obex are definitely a company we will be working with more in the future.”
“It's a pleasure to go onto site and see your EPDM work. - Greg Gracey - Senior Project Management - Unique Windows”
“Artkal shares their thoughts on S05002TR Printed Clear Protection Film - Since sourcing Obex film we have been very impressed with artwork and turnaround time for ordered goods. Aside from being such a great product the tackiness is great allowing a smooth application process to glass, using this product has also proved to give Artkal great exposure for prospective jobs. The Obex staff are also great to deal with making the overall process simple and hassle-free.”
“The product range is varied and of high quality, delivered always in the requested timeframe. Their prices are extremely competitive which helped us make considerable savings since using them as suppliers.”
