​Teckrez, a leading international supplier of tackifier resins and specialty chemicals, announced that Wayne Goldenberg, Ph.D. will direct the company’s newly formed Specialty Monomers and Chemicals Group.  Dr. Goldenberg will drive growth in targeted acrylic monomer market segments, as well as provide his considerable product development and sales channel experience in assisting Teckrez partners and customers to achieve their goals.
 
“Teckrez looks forward to its emerging role as a trusted supplier to the wide variety of companies that use specialty monomers,” says Marc Jackson, president of Teckrez.  “Wayne’s knowledge of specialty monomer products and their associated handling and distribution means Teckrez provides customers with creative and flexible supply options.  His chemical expertise will be valuable to customers wanting novel formulating approaches or solutions to technical application challenges.”
 
Dr. Goldenberg brings 15 years of experience in the commercial chemical industry with a focus in specialty acrylate and methacrylate monomers.  He also spent 6 years in the petroleum industry with expertise in product development, technical support, marketing and sales management for laboratory instrumentation.
 
“I am honored to join the Teckrez team and help position the company for growth in acrylic monomers from the MONTECK® product line,” says Dr. Goldenberg.  “The TECKREZ® hydrocarbon resin and TECKROS® rosin lines currently provide our customers with the widest tackifier range in the industry.  With the expansion into acrylate and methacrylate monomers, the combined Teckrez product lines will be among the highest quality and widest ranging in the industry.”
 
To facilitate Teckrez’ s expansion into acrylic monomers, the company has added two new packaging and warehousing facilities in Houston and Philadelphia to support its growing monomer customer base.
 
Dr. Goldenberg earned his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin at Madison under Prof. Hans Reich, and a B.A. in Chemistry from the University of Colorado at Boulder.  He has been published nine times in peer-reviewed publications including Environmental Science & Technology, American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Archive for Organic Chemistry, Organic Letters, and Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS).

Teckrez, a company specializing in tackifiers, announced a new range of hydrogenated hydrocarbon (HC Series) resins, including fully hydrogenated (HF Series) and aromatically-modified hydrogenated (HM Series).  These are hydrogenated C9 resins that provide superior stability and performance compared to currently available hydrogenated hydrocarbon (DCPD and C5-based) resins.
 
The Teckrez HF and HM Series hydrogenated C9 resins are produced by Henghe Materials and Science and marketed by Teckrez in North America to producers of adhesives, sealants, and coatings.
 
“We are pleased Henghe Materials chose Teckrez as their exclusive distribution partner for these products in the United States,” says Marc Jackson, president of Teckrez. “Henghe made a significant investment, resulting in more than 50 thousand tons of new capacity for hydrogenated C9 resins. Until now, this type of resin has had limited availability in North America.”
 
These resins enable customers to differentiate packaging and converting adhesives, pressure-sensitive tape and label products, and sealants by improved adhesion, lower odor, lighter color, and better thermal-oxidative stability.
 
“Teckrez looks forward to helping our customers create value with these resins in applications that include adhesives, sealants, coatings, and plastic films,” continues Jackson. “Hydrogenated C9 resins offer many benefits, including light color, low odor, high adhesion and excellent thermal stability.”

Leading Tackifier Specialist Expands North American Office
 
Teckrez announced today that Marc Jackson has joined the company as president. Jackson will lead the growth in target adhesive and other market segments, as well as provide his considerable chemical industry management capability and experience in assisting Teckrez partners and customers achieve their goals.      
 
“Marc is a great addition to Teckrez and we look forward to his immediate impact,” says Tom Eckhardt, chief executive officer and managing director of Teckrez. “He will spearhead aggressive growth in target segments and bring diversified management skills to provide an even better product/service capability to our customers. We’re glad to have him join our team.”
​
Jackson brings nearly 20 years of business and sales management experience in tackifier resins with Arizona Chemical and Union Camp Chemicals (now Kraton), as well as additive and stabilizer industry experience with Ciba Specialty Chemicals (now BASF). He joins Teckrez after successfully initiating and developing a significant specialty monomers business with Melrob US, Inc, now a division of NRC.
 
“I am very excited about the opportunity to build upon what is the leading independent tackifier resin capability in North America,” says Jackson. “With some great new additions to the product line, Teckrez has the opportunity to expand its market presence and provide even better performance and value options. I look forward to working with customers and the Teckrez team to make that happen.”
 
To accommodate its growing team, Teckrez has moved to expanded offices in Jacksonville, FL, which will triple office space to enable more advanced customer management, financial and information systems. The new office is located at 4217 Baymeadows Rd, Suite 2, Jacksonville, FL. 32217.
 
Jackson has a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from Drexel University and a Master of Science in Management of Technology from New York University. 

​Teckrez introduces hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins: fully hydrogenated (CH series) for packaging hot melt, clear sealants and other applications requiring exceptional color, outstanding stability, and non-polar / aliphatic character.

Teckrez has established U.S. testing capabilities to better assure consistency of supply and provide in-depth understanding of tackifier compositional factors affecting performance; this bolsters established Teckrez advantages in producer collaboration and expertise to provide unmatched supply assurance.  Teckrez U.S. capabilities include molecular weight distribution, NMR and standard resin quality testing.

Teckrez introduces a range of C9-based, C5-modified tackifier resins which combine favorable economics of C9 resins with greatly improved color and odor. The Teckrez C95 series provide EVA hot melt performance comparable or better than rosin esters in many applications and, given narrow molecular weight distribution, are very effective performers with SBS polymers for PSA and assembly applications. Unlike similar US produced resins which have been beset with feedstock supply issues, Teckrez C95 series are backed by solid, consistent feedstock supply. Teckrez C95 grades are available in softening points ranging from 95 to 120 C.

Teckrez announces the commercialization of Teckrez C series hydrocarbon resins matching or exceeding industry best standards in color, odor, molecular weight distribution and performance for markets including pressures sensitive adhesives, hot melts, construction mastics, sealants, coatings, inks, wax compounding, rubber compounding, road marking and other applications.  Product technologies include Teckrez C5 (aliphatic), Teckrez C9 (aromatic), and Teckrez CX (alicyclic/C9).  Along with the well-established range of Teckros rosin tackifiers, Teckrez now offers the widest range available of high quality resin tackifiers to better meet customer needs.

​Teckrez has appointed Hall Technologies as distributor for the entire Midwest USA region. Tom Eckhardt states that Hall Technologies "has a great reputation as a technically-oriented sales and distribution company and we are very pleased to  partner with them." Mark Loudenslager, Executive Vice President for Hall Technologies Inc. says "the considerable product and technical strengths of Hall Technologies will be enhanced by the addition of the Teckrez line, which provides the widest range of rosin resins in the industry."
