Spandex acquires Seri Service

Spandex has expanded its operations in France with the acquisition of Seri Service, a specialist distributor of self-adhesive and flexible materials and accessories for visual communications and textile decoration.

Seri Service is a family-run business with a 36 year heritage. Located in Brindas (Lyon), it is a reseller of self-adhesive media from brands including Mactac, as well as of materials and presses for heat transfer onto textiles. The company offers same-day delivery locally and next-day delivery nationwide, with additional services including cutting of roll media to specific widths and formats, and production of bespoke banners. Seri Service founders Claire and Thierry Teillout will remain with the business along with the warehouse and back office teams. They will work closely with Spandex France general manager, Denis Bourgeois, to integrate product portfolios and operations over time. Guido Moresi, Spandex Vice-President, said: “Seri Service has earned a strong reputation for product choice and quality of service in all four key market segments for Spandex - signage, vehicle wrap, decor and textile. Its addition to the group will extend our ability to serve the needs of customers across France, particularly in Lyon and the wider Rhône-Alpes region, while also expanding the range of self-adhesive products available to customers of Seri Service and Spandex.”
