St. Louis, Missouri (February 5, 2009) – To meet growing market demand, Alexseal Yacht Coatings has added two additional distributors in the Mediterranean. The addition of Italy’s Amico Servizi Srl and Teknomarin in Turkey to Alexseal’s distribution network will provide customers with greater access to scientifically advanced coatings, as well as highly skilled technical service throughout the Mediterranean.
Amico Servizi Srl, sister company to Amico & Co – founded in 1990 and one of the Mediterranean’s leading superyacht refit and repair facilities – continues to increase the products and services available to captains and crew at its Genoa facility. Amico Servizi Srl added its distribution services in 2007 and due to its significant expansion of products and services is a natural addition to the ALEXSEAL® global distribution network.
The strength and steadfastness of Amico Servizi Srl is credited to a team with a long history in the superyacht market and their close cooperation with Amico & Co’s premier yacht painting center. Drawing on the experience in the superyacht business and technical knowledge from ts partnership with Amico & Co, Amico Servizi Srl has quickly established itself as Italy’s most reliable and ideal distributor of ALEXSEAL® products.
Teknomarin, Istanbul’s leading brand for economical, high quality yacht and industrial paints, is a subsidiary of Istanbul Teknik Boya ve Kimya San. Tic. LTD. (Istanbul Technical Paint and Chemistry LTD. – ITB). Specializing in manufacturing and direct sales of marine and industrial paints for more than 30 years, Teknomarin now provides Turkey’s multitude of boatyards and professional applicators with access to Alexseal’s complete set of premium paint products.
Following suit with Alexseal’s corporate philosophy, Teknomarin is as equally customer focused in the field with professional applicators as they are with vessel owners and operators after the sale. Teknomarin has achieved market leadership among domestic yacht paint manufacturers in a relatively short time frame, and has received the British Lloyd’s Register ISO 9001 quality approval certificate – Attributes that make for another perfect addition to the ALEXSEAL® distributor network.
