Allco - The Company

Allco Agencies Ltd was incorporated in 1975 as a company specialising in Waterproofing Products, seismic joints and related construction chemicals. In the last 30 years we are proud to have supplied quality products and solutions to a number of major structures nationwide. We offer INDEPENDENT ADVICE based on sound technical knowledge and practical experience.

With diversified investment in a range of agencies, we are able to source product from a number of affiliated suppliers. This enables us to offer the product most suited to an application rather than compromise, due to a lack of alternatives.

As a result we are able to offer a single source system:

            One Specification

            One Warranty

            One Applicator

            As well as Independent Quality Assurance Site Inspection.

It is our belief that business must always be conducted in an honest manner and that the product offered is, to the best of our knowledge, the most suited for the purpose envisaged.
