Following in the footsteps of Drogenbos, Belgium, and Bopfingen, Germany, this is the adhesive manufacturer’s third European site to obtain ISCC PLUS certification for its polyurethane production.
From October 23 to 25, packaging manufacturers and brand owners can see the results of this collaboration for themselves at Henkel's booth 1C17 at Tokyo Pack 2024.
The company already enjoys a long-standing relationship with Henkel, a global leader in many industrial and consumer businesses. UPM Specialty Papers also recently embarked on projects with Koenig & Bauer, a globally active printing press manufacturer and software solutions provider.
The Technology Center features an interactive infinity room that includes a display of Henkel Adhesives Technologies' most innovative solutions in the region.
Facility showcases Henkel’s entire technology portfolio of adhesives, sealants, functional coatings and specialty materials and supports an environment for collaboration with customers from over 800 industry segments to develop innovative solutions.
Henkel optimized its pioneering coatings specifically for UPM papers, reinforcing their original barrier properties to offer new levels of grease resistance.
Henkel and Plastic Bank aim to expand its engagement in the coming years and to reach a yearly collection capacity of 5,000 tons of plastic waste in 2023.
