Epirez Information

EPIREZ was founded by Charles S. Simmons in 1955 and the first product formulations pioneered the Australian development of epoxy based adhesives and coatings for use with concrete. Products such as EPIREZ 133 epoxy mortar repair binder, Supaflow HF grout and the SUPATUFF range of floor coatings and toppings have continued to break new ground in epoxy and allied technology development for architects, engineers, consultants, specifiers, users and contractors in the Australian building and construction industry. The company's original premises was located at Granville in Sydney. Thereafter, in 1982, the company moved to larger premises located at Villawood, Sydney. During this time the company expanded by establishing premises and specialised construction type distributorships on a national basis, thus positioning Epirez to better service the construction repair and applicator market. In 1992, Epirez Construction Products was purchased by Morgan Crucible Plc of the UK. The company remained at its Villawood premises until April 1998 upon which all of the companies within Morganite Australia's chemical division were consolidated onto one large 7000m2 premises at Wetherill Park in Sydney. The name of this new company came to be known as Morgan Chemical Products, a division of Morgan Speciality Chemicals Division encompassing the other Australian Morgan brands of Rocol, Molybond and Galmet.
