Winn & Coales International Ltd have been honoured with a Queen's Awards for Enterprise for International Trade recognising its growth in world sales over the past few years. The award announced on the Queen's birthday is the result of the combined efforts of the company's UK, based staff, subsidiary companies and global network of agents offering proven and cost-effective solutions for its customers corrosion and sealing related problems. Winn & Coales International, established in 1883 remains an independent company and celebrated its 125th Anniversary in 2008. The company's Denso anti-corrosion and sealing systems have been used to protect buried and sub-sea pipeline, exposed steelwork and storage tanks in highly corrosive environments worldwide for over 80 years. Chairman David Winn OBE said “ Winning this award recognises the amazing success we have achieved in establishing our products reliability and quality across the world despite recessionary times. It is a reward for all of the effort and finance we have continually invested in developing new innovative products to solve our customers ever changing needs”. |

1960 - 2010, 50 Years of Jointing Precast Concrete Units with Tokstrip After celebrating 80 Years of Pipeline and steelwork protection in 2009, we are pleased to continue with another milestone product - Tokstrip, the market leading box culvert, manhole and ring chamber sealant. This year marks 50 years of service to the building industry. Launched in 1960, at the leading edge technology then, as it still is today. Tokstrip is a rubber bitumen compound with a built in tree root inhibitor which solves the old problem of sealing precast concrete sections, which prior to this was messy, time consuming and prone to leaking. Tokstrip solved these problems by offering a strong flexible waterproof and long lasting seal and was readily accepted, being specified and utilised by all areas of the market from the concrete pipe manufacturers civil engineers and drainage contractors through to house builders - and it is still going strong today. Still the brand leader today, Tokstrip is the one asked for and specified by name. It offers the same reliable performance after 50 years and is continually updated to meet the different demands and specifications of its customers. |

| 1929 - 2009, 80 Years of Pipeline & Steelwork Protection
2009 marks the 80th Anniversary of Denso Petrolatum Tapes being used around the world and continues the long success story that shows no signs of ending. When Denso Tape was launched in the UK in 1929, the extensive market potential was underestimated for this permanently flexible tape wrap coating, which still today provides the most effective solution for long-term corrosion prevention when applied over minimally prepared steel surfaces. The tape provides a controlled thickness over all pipe and steelwork profiles and is normally used in conjunction with a primer and mastic for profiling awkward shapes such as pipe couplings or back-to-back steelwork angles in highly corrosive environments. This petrolatum based system can also be applied to damp surfaces and even underwater due to moisture displacing properties. A selection of plastic or liquid applied outer Armourings provide different degrees of mechanical protection to suit most pipeline, steelwork or marine jetty pile projects. Simple yet devastatingly effective with no better cost-effective way available for protecting valuable steel assets, we are confident the Denso Petrolatum Tape Systems will continue to play an important role in the never ending fight against corrosion for many years to come.  |

We are extremely proud to announce that Winn & Coales International Ltd remain an independent company and are celebrating ‘125 years Service to Industry’ in 2008. To commemorate the occasion the company have produced a special historical 2008 calendar and will be holding several conferences and gala dinners during the year, inviting key staff and customers from around the world to attend. The company, founded in London by Paul Winn in 1883, began its life by importing and exporting commodities such as starch, sugar and coke but started to specialise in anti-corrosion and sealing waxes at the turn of the century. Petrolatum tapes and mastics were introduced in 1929. During the following years the company expanded rapidly, increasing and selling their product range not only in the UK but globally and setting up subsidiaries in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. With the additional support of a substantial network of dedicated agents around world, the products were made available, virtually anywhere. Notable events are as follows. In 1946 when Paul Winn died, Frank Coales was appointed Chairman. In 1957 the company launched its ‘Sylglas’ range of DIY water and weatherproofing products in the UK, reaping benefits gained from years of experience dealing with sealing solutions. In 1960 ‘Tokstrip’ was introduced for jointing precast concrete units and rapidly became the brand leader in this market. In 1965 David Winn joined the company and was appointed Chairman in 1991, only the third Chairman since it all began in 1883. He remains Chairman today. The success of Denso and Sylglas products, was and still is, based on effective, long-lasting, solutions to customers problems and using the latest technology the company has continued to develop novel systems such as Archco-Rigidon’, ‘SeaShield’ and ‘Steelcoat’ to satisfy their demands. |
