Stop chasing suppliers. Keep production running — with Italian Lacquer Thinner delivered on your schedule, from three-litre cans to full IBCs, by a partner built around your operation.
Direct European import — sealed, traceable, one fixed specification
Most industrial buyers in Addis Ababa deal with the same problem: too many suppliers, too much price variation, and too much time spent sourcing. EHAB Trading was built to be the opposite — a single, reliable source for industrial solvents that performs the same way every time you order.
We import directly from Italy — bringing European production standard straight to your warehouse in Addis Ababa. No middlemen, no substitutions, no batch-to-batch variation. The product you tested is the product you keep receiving.
Direct European import, sealed to your warehouse. What you order is what arrives — no substitutions, no blending, no batch drift. One fixed specification every drum, every shipment.
Most thinner sold in Ethiopia comes from multiple sources with no fixed specification — which means every drum is slightly different. Lacquer Thinner is produced in Italy to a fixed European standard: same methanol content, same viscosity profile, same drying behavior. The batch you test today is the batch you receive six months from now. That predictability is what your operation needs.
Imported directly from Italy. Not blended, diluted, or substituted. What you order is what arrives.
Every industry below has called us because they had the same frustration — inconsistent supply, quality variation, or hours wasted sourcing every month. Here's what we've heard, and what we do about it.
You call three suppliers every month to get a price. You get different quality in every shipment. You run out mid-production because your last order was delayed. None of this is a small problem — it costs you time, materials, and customer trust. EHAB was built specifically to eliminate it.
Most operations that use Lacquer Thinner also run through a small handful of adjacent solvents — for cleaning, adhesive prep, ink work, refinishing. We source each of these directly from the same Italian production line, to the same European standard. Ask us — we will quote whichever your operation actually needs.
Slower-evaporating aliphatic solvent for oil-based paints, general workshop cleaning, and degreasing. The workhorse for surface prep when acetone is too aggressive and thinner is too fast.
Fast-evaporating, aggressive on resins and adhesives. For hardened lacquer removal, adhesive cleanup, fiberglass and polyester resin work, and cleaning spray nozzles between colours.
Clean surface prep with no oily residue. Standard for pre-paint wipe-down, print roller and blanket cleaning, and any application where the surface has to be spotless before the next step.
Standard solvent for adhesives in leather and footwear assembly, ink dilution in flexographic and gravure printing, and lacquer formulations that need a milder ester profile than acetone.
Strong ketone solvent for heavy metal degreasing, adhesive preparation, and stripping cured epoxy or two-part coatings. Used where surface energy matters — welding prep, hard-coating removal.
Slower-evaporating ester used as a retarder in automotive refinishing and lacquer spraying — extends open time, prevents blushing in humid conditions, gives you the flow-out for a professional finish.
