Bonding is one of the key topics of the 21st century. Henkel adhesive solutions are applied in a diverse range of markets encompassing transportation, electronics, aerospace, metal bonding, packaging as well as building and furniture. In particular, wooden parts glued with Henkel adhesives are becoming of more importance – among many applications in the furniture industry, they are applied in residential and infrastructure buildings, bridges or even wind farms.
We partner with our customers during their product development process and support them with tailormade tools and best practice experience.
Dispersion glue, often referred to as emulsion, is an adhesive consisting of an organic binder (mainly PVAc) that is finely dispersed in water. Henkel is your experienced partner, offering a comprehensive portfolio of waterbased adhesives based on different polymers (e.g. PVAc, EVA, PUD) for a multitude of application fields – from flat lamination over assembly to 3D thermoforming. Besides the comprehensive range of adhesive solutions, customers also benefit from Henkel’s strong regional presence. This does not only result in short routes to the customers, but also in very cost-efficient and sustainable processes.
Henkel’s waterbased adhesive solutions provide lasting quality for flat lamination – whether veneering, the lamination of decorative strips to lacquered surfaces and many other applications
Flat lamination and surface bonding are frequently used in the building and furniture industry, e.g. for wood-based panels, veneers, CPL and HPL. Depending on the substrates to be bonded as well as specific requirements, different adhesives and technologies are applied. Henkel is offering quality adhesive systems for flat lamination including PUR hotmelts, non-reactive hotmelts and waterbased adhesives.
Whether veneering, lamination of HPL or CPL or foil to particle board or the lamination of decorative strips to lacquered surfaces – Henkel’s waterbased adhesive solutions provide lasting quality for flat lamination:
