Strategic Partnerships Franklin International recently formed a distribution partnership with Elias Wilf Corporation, presenting an immediate cross-sell opportunity to verify and expand product reach within flooring retailer networks and contractor channels.

Acquired Capabilities Hexion’s asset sale of PVA and EPI Emulsions to Franklin strengthens Franklin's portfolio and production capacity in adhesives and emulsions, enabling targeted upsell of new polymer formulations and higher-margin product suites to existing industrial customers.

Construction Focus With a broad product line spanning glues, adhesives, hot melts, binders and sizing compounds used in construction and furniture, there is a clear cross-selling path to builders, contractors and manufacturers seeking integrated adhesive solutions.

Expansion Footprint Historical office expansion in Columbus and ongoing global distribution across six continents suggests readiness to scale sales efforts in regional construction and manufacturing hubs, including North American and international accounts.

Private Scale Advantage Being privately held and mid-market (revenue in the 250–500 million range) can be positioned as a flexible partner for mid-market distributors and manufacturers seeking reliable supply of emulsions, hot melts and specialty polymers with strong customer service.
