Weld-On® To Launch New Solvent Cement

''IPS came to this decision to market Weld-On 750 after being informed by Christy's that they would be developing and manufacturing their own solvent cements,'' said Eric Bescoby, Chief Executive Officer of IPS Corp. ''Weld-On 750 is a natural extension to the Weld-On product line, and we're excited to offer this product directly to our customers under its new name.''

IPS® will no longer be the manufacturer of Red Hot Blue Glue® for Christy'sTM

IPS® Corporation, the inventor of solvent cements, primers and cleaners for PVC, CPVC, and ABS piping systems, announces the availability of Weld-On® 750 HOTWELD TM. Previously marketed by Christy's???????(R)???????? as Red Hot Blue Glue®, Weld-On 750 is the same all-weather, wet or dry, PVC solvent cement that professional contractors, fitting manufacturers, spa manufacturers and repair professionals have trusted for over 20 years.

Weld-On 750 is a medium bodied, fast setting PVC solvent cement with superior long-term performance that is excellent for use in challenging conditions including wet, damp or cold applications. In addition, Weld-On 750 is a one-step, Low-VOC formulation that complies with LEED requirements.
