Anker Stuy Coatings is celebrating a significant milestone – five years in the UK market. Since opening its doors in Peterborough amid Brexit, Anker Stuy has consistently grown, weathering various challenges, including the raw materials crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. This resilience and adaptability have solidified its reputation as a trusted name in the exterior joinery industry. Now, Anker Stuy is poised to make an impact on the interior joinery sector, building on its success in its home market in the Netherlands.
A decade of growth and resilience
Entering the UK market during the turbulent period of Brexit was a bold move. Anker Stuy faced uncertainties and disruptions but managed to establish a firm foothold. Over the past five years, the company has not only survived but thrived, demonstrating remarkable growth each year even through years of global crisis. After earning a stellar reputation in the exterior joinery industry, Anker Stuy is now venturing into the interior joinery market. The company’s Ankocryl Interior range, developed and curated specifically for the UK interior joinery market, represents a significant step in this direction.
Introducing the Ankocryl interior range
The Ankocryl interior range offers a streamlined, single-component, self-cross-linking water-based solution for interior joinery. This product line is designed to simplify the finishing process while delivering exceptional results.
This range provides numerous advantages ideal for interior coatings, particularly for kitchen and cupboard doors. First, its single-component nature simplifies the application process by eliminating the requirement to mix multiple components, thereby reducing potential errors during application. Being water-based, they emit lower levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to traditional solvent-based coatings.
Second, the coatings utilise self-cross-linking technology, resulting in a robust and resilient finish capable of withstanding the daily wear and tear typical in kitchens.
The durability and ease of application of Ankocryl coatings translate into tangible cost savings for both manufacturers and consumers. Reduced requirements for frequent touch-ups and replacements make these coatings a cost-effective solution in the long term, aligning economic benefits with environmental responsibility and aesthetic quality.
A bright future ahead
As Anker Stuy Coatings celebrates its five-year anniversary in the UK, it is clear that the company is well-positioned for continued success. Expansion into the interior joinery market marks an exciting new chapter. With a proven track record of resilience and innovation, Anker Stuy is set to stir-up the interior joinery market.
In these five years, Anker Stuy has not only navigated through significant challenges but has also laid a strong foundation for future growth. As it continues to innovate and expand, the company remains committed to providing high-quality, environmentally friendly solutions that meet the evolving needs of the joinery industry. Here’s to celebrating the past five years and looking forward to many more years of success and innovation.
