Tech-driven Business Models

As a global leader in material technologies, we offer a broad portfolio of functional inks that allow to print functional electronics circuits on foil, creating flexible circuitry for various applications, including IOT sensors. IOT engineers can explore the possibilities offered by printed electronics thanks to our innovative Henkel Qhesive Solutions Sensor INKxperience Kit, which offers four different printed technologies that are pre-configured with hardware and software for prototyping and ideation.

As industry-leading suppliers of printed electronics and material services, we address customer demands. Our highly conductive ink can be pad printed directly onto a 3D surface, responding to demands for further miniaturization and increasing functionalities, offering potentials in a variety of applications, like smart watches, semiconductor or automotive electronics.

The mission of wearable medical devices is to support the treatment of diseases and to improve the quality of life, especially for people with chronic diseases. Henkel Adhesive Technologies supports that mission by offering innovative solutions for almost every step in the medical device manufacturing process – from product assembly to skin-compatibility, to 3D printed parts and electronics.

LOCTITE Pulse is redefining industrial reliability. From cutting-edge monitoring technology to trusted solutions for both static and rotating equipment, our Industrial Internet of Things Solutions are designed to help our customers stay ahead of plant failures, reduce downtime, and improve safety as well as sustainability. LOCTITE Pulse provides a plug-and-play, easy to implement solution that allows to monitor a wide range of critical equipment from a single, intuitive app.

A key element of the digitalization of our global production network is the Digital Backbone – a cloud-based data platform that links many of our factories around the world in real time. The technology enables us to benchmark each site and provides valuable information on how we can increase quality and efficiency. We can also use the Digital Backbone system to help us achieve our sustainability goals, measuring energy and utilities consumption of each site in real time.
