Resene Automotive & Light Industrial
The Company that Makes the Difference

Started in 1980, Anglo Santano Ltd quickly grew from selling solvents to becoming the DuPont Automotive distributor in Auckland. Resene were the DuPont distributor in Wellington, and purchased Anglo Santano in 1995 to form Resene Santano Ltd. Now trading as Resene Automotive and Light Industrial, the business is a national distributor/importer as well as a substantial manufacturer in its own right, serving the automotive and industrial industry.
