More sustainable bonding solutions

See it big and keep it simple.

In a world driven by technology, we are jointly responsible for the protection of our environment. At Jowat, we know that the journey to a big goal such as sustainability often starts with small details. Because small things can make a difference when it comes to being more sustainable. Our objective for many years has therefore been to develop bonding solutions that are more environmentally friendly and which can make a real difference in the wide range of processes in industry.

The manufacturing of “green” adhesives is part of our innovative approach which focuses on the many different aspects of sustainability. Resource conservation, occupational safety, a healthy environment and the use of renewable raw materials are areas where we can make a direct impact. To that end, we keep an eye on the big picture and take into account the entire bonding process This diversity is reflected in our green portfolio which provides fitting solutions for a broad spectrum of applications.

Renewable Raw Materials

Renewable Raw Materials

Fossil raw materials are not only finite, their use also places a heavy burden on the environment. It is time to create sustainable alternatives. Jowat uses renewable as well as recycled raw materials. Our GROW product series sets new benchmarks for biobased adhesives. We manufacture environmentally friendly bonding solutions that are based on natural materials and characterized by high performance.

Healthy Living

Healthy Living

In our daily lives, we are rarely aware of the potential chemical hazards in our environment. However, it is a concern which is increasingly playing a role in the buying decision of consumers. Our pollutant- and emission-reduced adhesives facilitate bonded products that can be used free of any worries.

Occupational Health and Safety

Occupational Health and Safety

The health of your employees is important and must be protected. By choosing modern adhesives, you can prevent unnecessary hazards in their work, in line with the principle of substitution. Additional occupational safety can be provided by reducing the overall hazard potential for your employees . The latest generation of PUR hot melt adhesives are not subject ot hazard classification, and low-temperature hot melt adhesives reduce the risk of injury during processing.

Resource-Saving

Resource-Saving

Sustainability is often understood to mean only natural raw materials and recycling. However, environmental responsibility and the conservation of finite resources play a pivotal role in all process stages and are impacted by consumption of energy as well as material. This also true when it comes to the processing of our products. We take all these aspects into account when we develop our products and create optimized conditions such as lower processing temperatures or reduced overall adhesive consumption.
