Henkel publishes its Q1 2024 statement on May 8, 2024.

The quarterly statement and the link to the media call ‏(in German) can be found in this press kit.

Henkel Adhesive Technologies, Kraton Corporation, and Dow Inc. have achieved a reduction in product carbon footprint for two of Henkel’s North American flagship products for end-of-line packaging: TECHNOMELT® SUPRA 100 and TECHNOMELT® SUPRA 106M.

Henkel's adhesive solution Aquence PS 3017 RE has received certification by the renowned and independent cyclos-HTP Institute ‏(CHI), confirming the recyclability of the packaging component. Designed from the outset as a sustainable solution, it is a water-based acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive designed for the olefinic filmic labels used for wash-off PET bottles. Its excellent wash-off performance allows labels to be effectively removed prior to recycling, even at lower temperatures, reducing energy consumption.
