QEP Snaps Up Spray-Lock to Bolster Adhesives Business
QEP Co. closed the Spray-Lock asset acquisition Sept. 1, adding premium aerosol adhesives to its flooring portfolio. Deal terms were not disclosed.
QEP Co. (OTCQX: QEPC) just made a move. The Boca Raton-based flooring products company quietly closed its acquisition of substantially all assets of Spray-Lock, Inc. on September 1, 2026, then announced it publicly a week later. That gap between closing and announcement is worth noting — this deal was already done before most retail investors heard a word about it.
Spray-Lock is a developer, manufacturer, and distributor of premium aerosol spray adhesives built for flooring and wall applications. If you follow QEP at all, you know the company has been steadily building out its manufacturing footprint. This acquisition slots directly into that strategy, giving QEP a branded adhesives product line to complement its existing installation-products business.

Whether this acquisition is a needle-mover or just a tuck-in depends on Spray-Lock's revenue scale, which the company hasn't shared yet. Stay patient and wait for the numbers.
