The STT Sales warehouse for Bond M, Darachem and Flash Harry
The company started out manufacturing industrial adhesives, but later branched out into waterproofing compounds, specifically focusing on bitumen and acrylics. In 1985, it broke into the retail side of the market, under the brand name Flash Harry, and in 1989, it began manufacturing a range of modified bitumen membranes (such as Thermoflex and Slatex) as well as an assortment of specialist waterproofing products.
Eager to consolidate its position as one of the leaders in the local waterproofing market, Darachem acquired industrial waterproofing brand Bond M in 2000.
Flash Harry was the first local brand to popularise the DIY acrylic waterproofing kit, and its quality and consistency resulted in the brand’s quick acceptance as a trusted name in the hardware sector
In 2002, the company built a new liquid production plant at its premises in Anderbolt, Boksburg North, as well as warehousing and dispatch bays. And in 2004, it completed construction of a new bitumen membrane plant, and related warehousing.
In this day and age, where we are inundated with fly-by-night operators, and cheap imports from China, it’s good to know that there is a waterproofing brand that you can trust to Just Work
