Industry

Fasson Europe, whose headquarters for 27 years have been in the Netherlands, has selected one of its most successful production plants — Cramlington, Northumberland — as the site for a new European research centre for new adhesives, face‐materials and release systems for the development of self‐adhesive labelling, marking and industrial fastening products. A 38‐year‐old English chemist, David Dillamore, is to head it up.
