Henkel was founded in 1876 and celebrates its 150th anniversary this year – a special milestone that draws attention to the company’s long and multifaceted history. In the run-up to this anniversary, Prof. Dr. Joachim Scholtyseck, Professor of Modern and Contemporary History at the University of Bonn, has conducted a comprehensive academic study of Henkel’s development over several years. In his independent research, he traces the company’s evolution from a local laundry detergent manufacturer to a publicly listed global company.

Rising thermal loads in vehicle electronics are increasing the need for high-performance thermal management solutions, especially in advanced applications such as ADAS, ECUs, or power conversion components in electric vehicles. To address this fast-evolving challenge, Henkel Adhesive Technologies has launched Bergquist Gap Filler TGF 6500LVO, a next-generation thermal gap filler with 6.5W/m∙K thermal conductivity. This new material enables more effective heat transfer in critical systems, helping manufacturers manage increasing power density and maintain performance and reliability.
