BOUND SURFACING

VUBA CHEMICAL INNOVATIONS( VUBA) HAS OFFICIALLY ACQUIRED SURESET

Vuba Chemical Innovations( Vuba) has officially acquired SureSet, the company that pioneered the resinbound industry in the UK. This acquisition represents a significant milestone not only for Vuba and SureSet, but for the wider resin bound sector.
For three decades, SureSet has built an unrivalled reputation for delivering one of the industry’ s most trusted and proven resin systems across domestic and commercial projects. Recognised for quality and innovation, it’ s become the industry’ s most specified commercial system and a trusted choice across commercial projects.
Founded in 2009, Vuba has grown into a global leader in the resin bound industry, manufacturing resin and investing over £ 4m into an aggregate processing facility in 2024 and this year, Vuba is opening a second aggregate processing facility. Its award-winning commitment to innovation has driven major advancements, including bringing marble aggregates to the UK market for use in resin bound systems, the development of VubaMac- a base designed for resin installs- and the use of structural reinforcement mesh, which adds 73 % strength to overlay installs. Combined with growing homeowner awareness, international partnerships, and local distribution facilities across the UK, this has significantly increased demand for these systems.
The acquisition is about more than growth. It reflects a shared commitment to innovation, quality, and ultimately protecting SureSet’ s legacy as the brand that established the resin bound industry in the UK, ensuring their influence continues for years to come.
Peter Watts, Founder of SureSet said:“ We believe Vuba represents the right long-term home for the SureSet brand. Their scale, infrastructure, and market position provide a strong platform for the next chapter and continued growth of SureSet.”
Sean Scott, Founder of Vuba added:“ SureSet’ s contribution to the resin bound industry is unparalleled. They laid the foundations for an entire sector and inspired companies like ours to push the industry forward. Through acquiring SureSet we will protect that legacy, while making sure the company that started it all continues to lead and inspire the future of the industry.”
By bringing together SureSet’ s proven legacy and Vuba’ s forwardthinking approach, the acquisition marks an exciting future for both Vuba and SureSet customers- maintaining the same high standards across both brands while giving each network access to the combined strengths and advantages of both companies. www. vubasurfaces. co. uk
