FKS
The processors of adhesives and sealants should benefit through the activities of the associaton.
The association creates guidelines for the processing to help and support our customers. Standardised supply- and guarantee provisions ensure customers a reliable service from the association members. Technical clarification and expertise should also help the customer's confidence to the members of the association.
With an active exchange of information and experience between the members the quality of the products should be increased. Careful observance of market developments and measures in envrionmental protection as well as the security during production, packaging, transport, application and disposal should contribute that the member company's s services can always fulfill high demands.
With the participation in legislative tasks (e.g. consultation) and cooperation in committees, the FKS wants to strenghtened the collaboration with authorities, national and international associations as well as to intensify already existing contacts.
The Association of the Adhesives Industry Switzerland (FKS) is a member of the European Association FEICA (Féderation Européenne des Industries de Colles et Adhésifs), which represents internationally the interest of their European National Associations. FEICA represents 14 national assosiaction members. Being a member of FEICA, the FKS is always informed about developments within the European Region.
