Formed in 1951, Stratmore (formerly Fraser Brown Stratmore) an independently owned manufacturer and importer of chemical products for the building and construction industry in New Zealand.

In addition, they manufacture other miscellaneous products such as pipe lubricants, paint stripper and floor protection coatings. Stratmore also undertakes contract manufacturing and packaging of products.

Stratmore is heavily committed to safety and customer support and they provide easy access to safety data sheets, product data sheets, application data, and other supporting documentation for all their products.

Stratmore implemented Lupin Chemical Management (haRMS) nearly 10 years ago.

According to Stratmore Technical Director, Hamish Stratmore “Prior to using Lupin Chemical Management (formerly HaRMS) there was a lot of complexity of creating and maintaining SDS and labelling under the HSNO legislation.”

“Lupin Chemical Management (HaRMS) provided the knowledge and security that ensured we were creating compliant SDSs and therefore a flow-on effect for labels of products. In addition, we now have a facility for hosting our data and maintaining records of raw materials.” he said.

“Probably the greatest benefit is reducing the time, effort and stress involved in creating compliant SDSs and labels. This has a flow-on effect of reducing cost and risk. We know that our data meets the requirements for HSNO and now GHS compliance requirements.” Mr Stratmore added.
