About Leeson Polyurethanes

Leeson Polyurethanes is a British manufacturer with four decades of experience engineering advanced polyurethane products. Founded by the Leeson family in 1986, we now deliver proven chemical solutions to partners across the UK, EMEA, and global markets. Our approach remains rooted in working alongside our customers to solve complex challenges rather than offering off-the-shelf compromises. Everything we design, test, and manufacture is driven by four core commitments:

Bespoke Innovation

Formulated Around Your Exact Challenge

We don’t believe in forcing off-the-shelf catalog products onto specialized site challenges. Leeson’s distinct advantage lies in our formulation agility — combining four decades of chemical expertise with the responsiveness needed to engineer bespoke solutions. When unique environmental conditions, substrates, or regulatory requirements arise, our technical team formulates the exact polyurethane or epoxy system required for the job.

Proven Performance

Built to Withstand the World’s Harshest Demands

True performance isn’t theoretical; it is proven across millions of square meters of demanding infrastructure. From marine decks facing sub-zero North Sea conditions to high-friction road approaches handling continuous heavy-vehicle shear, our chemistry is engineered to resist severe impact, chemical attack, and mechanical fatigue. Every batch is backed by rigorous internal testing to guarantee long-term field reliability.

Uncompromising Quality & Compliance

Certified Confidence in Every Drum

In critical construction and infrastructure, specification confidence is paramount. Our UK manufacturing operations adhere to strict ISO quality standards, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency and full compliance with UK REACH and European regulations. Supported by third-party accreditations — including BBA certifications and Lloyd’s Register marine approvals — Leeson delivers systems that satisfy the world’s most rigorous engineering standards.

Long-Term Partnership

Technical Guidance from Concept to Cure

We measure success by the durability of our partnerships. Beyond manufacturing high-performance resin, we serve as an extended arm of your engineering and contracting teams. From initial substrate evaluation and specification writing to mix consultation and on-site technical support, we provide the dedicated expertise needed to ensure seamless project execution and lasting peace of mind.

British Roots with International Reach

Leeson emerged from the UK’s chemical and industrial manufacturing sector in the 1980s, bringing entrepreneurial drive and technical expertise to customers whose needs were often overlooked. Today, we supply customers beyond the UK and work with international distributors and partners. Since becoming part of ICP Group in 2020, we have brought our British manufacturing experience into a wider international business while continuing to work directly with customers. Our team provides responsive service and technical support from initial specification through to product use.
