Jowat, a popular name in the adhesive world, now puts spotlight on sustainability and introduces Green adhesives for responsible manufacturing. Jowat has a major role to play at the upcoming trade shows LIGNA and interzum where they will introduce this path breaking product to the users. With sustainability at their core, the development of new adhesives based on renewable raw materials and the expansion of a sustainable product portfolio are key focuses of the innovation and technology leader Jowat.

The extension of a sustainable product line and the creation of novel adhesives based on renewable raw materials are two of the main priorities of innovation and technology leader Jowat. In order to make bonding applications in furniture and buildings more sustainable, taking into account a wide range of factors, Jowat has established its Green Adhesives, a complete package of trailblazing adhesives coupled with comprehensive services.

Green Adhesives
The Green Adhesives to be showcased at the interzum and LIGNA trade fairs provide a sample of the powerful adhesive range and worldwide renowned service of the adhesives expert Jowat and demonstrate that sustainable bonding applications are readily available and reliable.

The green product portfolio is tailored to match all focus areas: renewable raw materials, employee and consumer safety, and resource conservation. Therefore, the GROW product family supplies a broad spectrum of adhesives based on biological or recycled materials. Reactive PUR hot melt adhesives with hazard-free labeling from the Jowatherm-Reaktant MR series promote safety at the workplace and prevent costs for the additional training of processors prescribed in the EU. Special hot melt adhesives with low processing temperatures and high yield facilitate resource-saving manufacturing processes, and low-emission adhesives promote consumer safety.

Jowat Green Adhesives provide a benefit not only to companies in the furniture industry, but also to manufacturers of building elements and construction materials. They are powerful adhesives which facilitate sustainable and efficient construction and refurbishment due to their
wide range of applications—fully in line with in the spirit of the European Green Deal.
