Founded in 1959, Abatron, Inc., specializes in the research, formulation, and manufacture of epoxy and related compounds. Abatron, Inc.’s business initially served the OEM market with compounds for electronics, adhesives, coatings, composites, molds, and castings. In the early 1980’s the company expanded and began to fill the demand for high-quality building restoration products. During this period the company introduced LiquidWood® and WoodEpox® for wood restoration, ABOCRETE™, Aboweld™ 55-1, and Abojet™ for concrete restoration, and Metalfix™, Bronzeweld™, and Ferrobond™ for metal restoration.

Early on these products were specified for architectural restoration and sold exclusively to contractors for installation. Soon thereafter, the high demand for these products made it necessary to facilitate direct sales to end-users. A network of retailers was also established for our wood repair products. Stocking dealers can be found here.

Currently, Abatron, Inc.’s Building and Restoration Products catalog includes hundreds of items for the categories above, and much more, including:

- A wide range of industrial coatings for virtually any type of floor, including garages, basements, warehouses, shops, and gymnasiums.
- An in-house mold making shop where we can create molds and castings of virtually any architectural features. The products used for these projects can also be purchased for DIY molds and castings.
- An extensive line of adhesives and sealants.
- A structural crack-injection system for concrete walls.
- Plaster restoration products for patching and resurfacing cracks and holes.
- Stone care products for cleaning and maintaining natural stone.

Complementing this extensive product line is Abatron’s commitment to researching and developing new chemical specialties and processes. Contact us with questions regarding custom formulations or special product needs.

Abatron, Inc.’s primary focus is providing products that are:

- At the top of their product category in performance
- Permanent
- Safe to use and safe for the environment
- Easy to use

Our best-selling products are GREENGUARD® Certified. This means they are third-party tested as having virtually no VOC’s, and reflects Abatron, Inc.’s commitment to the safety of the user and environment.

Associated Steel Window Services is a family-managed business now into its 60th year as the steel window and door refurbishment and replacement specialist.

Since the third generation of the family has joined the business, the company has focused on offering a complete window package solution. Part of the ASWS ethos is the providing continual support and guidance for clients, from pre-tender through to completion of projects. This has allowed ASWS to successfully complete larger and more prestigious heritage projects, on landmark buildings across the UK; including County Hall, Unilever House, Victoria House, BBC Bush House and Hackney Town Hall. Most recently ASWS are proud to have been involved two the major refurbishment; the landmark historic shopping centre The Whiteley London as well as the restoration of the iconic Battersea Power Station.


ASWS offers full condition reports for buildings, often useful when deciding the scope of work and extent of refurbishment possible. The finished report can then be used as both a tendering platform or as a pre-start condition survey. The company is also able to help and facilitate in the writing or developing of specification documents.


ASWS services include refurbishment and replacement of timber and aluminium windows, as well as curtain walling, rooflights, external canopies and steel structures. This also offers its clients the ability to place an order for projects that involve a blend of window materials, placing the responsibility for the external works package on one contractor.

Tuscan Foundry Products Ltd is a UK-based manufacturer and distributor of building products for traditional, period and listed properties. We offer an extensive range of cast iron rainwater gutters and pipes from our foundry works in Mid Wales.

Support for your project from someone who actually understands the use of traditional building materials.

With more than half a million listed buildings and the recent trend in converting barns into domestic or office dwellings, the heritage property market is very buoyant in the UK. In fact, any building standing empty whether it’s an old mill, post office or even a disused train station has potential to a property developer and are snapped up for renovation regardless of its shape or practicalities.

Tuscan Foundry Products grown to become one of the UK’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of traditional cast iron rainwater drainage systems, traditional cast iron radiators and bespoke metal products. The company has a history of working with metal dating right back to 1893.

Being at the forefront of their industry, Tuscan Foundry Products continually updates the specification of its products to meet architectural needs. Although the products are largely specified for traditional buildings they also complement and add value to modern architecture.

Tuscan Foundry Products replicates traditional and unique guttering profiles for the replacement of failed sections of original rainwater systems. In total, Tuscan Foundry Products has 19 different profiles, 3 different pipe profiles and over 50 ornamental rainwater hopper heads. Original cast iron decorative features can also be restored back to their former glory by being shot blasted and repainted by the foundry.

Tuscan’s range of cast iron radiators are energy efficient as sectional columns meet with individual heat requirements. Cast iron radiators are supplied in units of up to ten sections (the length of the unit can be extended when installed). Each radiator comes complete with plugs, bushes and vents. An extensive range of solid brass, nickel or chrome radiator valves are available to suit both contemporary and traditional interiors.
