Glue dots and niche adhesives manufacturer Fantastak Group has said it's "business as usual" following the UK's Brexit vote.
Said sales and marketing director Richard Turner: "The lead up to the vote left UK businesses split and uncertain as to what the future may hold; followed by shock, and a dramatic response by the global markets and the value of the pound dropping so spectacularly.
"The political landscape is seeing considerable change with leadership debates, and even talks of an early general election. No one is really certain what will happen in the next few months, let alone the next few years, so it makes it tricky to develop strategies to tackle potential changes. However, we do know something for certain; our customers still expect the same high standards of service and quality products from us. That is why it is business as normal here at Fantastak."
Fantastak Ltd supply own brand glue dots, adhesive tapes and discs, and other adhesives required by business; Fantastak Retail provide brands with OEM / white label products and bespoke solutions for the craft, stationery and retail markets; and Simpson Turner is a new company that has developed a product called 'The Bugo', which stops bed bugs. All of these companies trade in the UK, EU and with the rest of the world.
