Leading Solvents is delighted to announce the acquisition of Sink Ltd, trading as Eurosolve. The move marks another significant milestone in the growth of the Leading Solvents Group, bringing together two businesses with a shared commitment to quality, service and customer relationships, and expanding the expertise, reach & range of services we can offer.
About Eurosolve
Eurosolve has built a strong reputation as a trusted provider of premium solvents, hazardous waste disposal and waste management services. The business is particularly well regarded across the flexographic printing sector, where reliable solvent supply and responsible waste handling are essential to keeping production running smoothly. Over the years, the Eurosolve team has developed deep specialist knowledge of the processes, challenges and requirements that printers face day to day.
At the heart of Eurosolve's success is a practical, efficient and cost-conscious approach. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, Eurosolve shapes its services around what each customer actually needs. That focus on understanding the customer first has earned the business long-standing relationships and a loyal customer base, and it is one of the main reasons the two companies are such a natural match.
A strong strategic fit
The acquisition is a strong strategic fit for Leading Solvents. Bringing Eurosolve into the Group:
- Extends our reach across the UK and Ireland, allowing us to serve more customers in more locations.
- Adds valuable specialist expertise to our team, particularly within the flexographic printing sector.
- Broadens our capabilities, giving us greater scope to develop and expand the products and services we offer.
- Strengthens our waste management offering, building on the hazardous waste collection services we already provide.
Complementary strengths
Since 1986, Leading Solvents has grown into one of the UK's established chemical blenders and distributors, supplying businesses across the automotive, manufacturing, cosmetic and healthcare sectors. Our services span bulk and wholesale chemical supply, white and private label manufacturing, regulatory compliance and SDS management, and hazardous waste collection, all supported by ADR-certified logistics and our own nationwide delivery and collection fleet.
Eurosolve's specialist solvent and waste management expertise sits naturally alongside these capabilities. Together, we can offer customers a more complete service, from supplying the solvents they use, to managing and disposing of waste safely and responsibly. For many businesses, that means fewer suppliers to manage, simpler logistics and a single point of contact they can trust.
Shared values, shared ambition
Beyond the practical benefits, the two businesses share a very similar outlook. Quality, great service, technical know-how and lasting customer relationships sit at the heart of how both companies operate. Both teams take pride in getting to know their customers, understanding their operations and finding solutions that genuinely work for them.
That common ground gives us a solid platform to build on. It means the combined business can grow without losing the personal touch and attention to detail that customers of both companies value so highly.
What this means for Eurosolve customers
Our immediate focus is continuity. Eurosolve customers can expect the same dependable service, support and standards they're used to, delivered by the people they already know. The difference is that Eurosolve is now backed by the wider resources of the Leading Solvents Group, providing additional strength, capacity and expertise to support customers well into the future.
What this means for Leading Solvents customers
For existing Leading Solvents customers, it's business as usual. You'll continue to work with the same team and receive the same service and products you rely on.
Over time, you'll also benefit from Eurosolve's specialist knowledge and an expanded offering, giving you more of what you need from a single trusted supplier. We'll keep customers updated as new products and services become available through the combined business.
Looking ahead
This acquisition is an exciting step forward for Leading Solvents and reflects our continued ambition to grow, invest and broaden what we can offer. As we expand, we remain fully committed to the personal approach and customer focus which has always defined who we are. Growth for us is about doing more for our customers, never about losing sight of them.
We'd like to extend a very warm welcome to the Eurosolve team and their customers. We're excited about the future and look forward to what we can achieve together.
