The highest-volume products include, in particular, hot-melt adhesives, which are used primarily in the packaging industry, and polyurethane adhesives for the wood and furniture industry.

‘With these investments, we want to improve the infrastructure in a targeted way and also expand our production capacities,’ explains Sven Trzcielinski, Site Manager of Henkel Bopfingen. “In the coming months, we will manufacture a variety of new products here to meet the increasing demands of our customer industries.” A strong focus is also on advanced product formulations for hot melts and polyurethane adhesives, which are increasingly based on sustainable alternative raw materials.
