WEICON – strong bonds
Operating internationally, our family business has been producing special products for the industrial sector since 1947. We keep the world’s industries running with our adhesives and sealants, technical sprays and high-performance assembly pastes and greases, which are used in production, repair, maintenance and servicing. Aside from our chemical products, we develop and distribute high-quality stripping tools under the brand name WEICON TOOLS.
Our top priority is to offer our customers the best possible service, to respond to their questions and requests and to be available to them as a point of contact. In every respect, we rely on strong bonds – and this applies to our products, labour relations and business relationships with our customers.
Our management team
Ralph and Ann-Katrin Weidling, Sascha Beilmann and Patrick Jennings – they make up our WEICON management team. Together they share the management tasks and run the family business as a team. While Ralph Weidling and Patrick Jennings mainly deal with sales and product issues, Ann-Katrin Weidling is primarily responsible for marketing, e-commerce and HR. Sascha Beilmann focuses especially on digitalisation and processes.
The family-owned business is now in its fourth generation: Ralph Weidling took over the management from his father over 20 years ago. His daughter Ann-Katrin has been part of the company since 2017 and joined the management team in 2020.
