Details
Afinitica has developed and patented
a highly innovative manufacturing process
used in the formulation of instant engineering adhesives
with a broader scope of applications
than traditional cyanoacrylates.
The new adhesives formulated by Afinitica can be used
on any type of surface and with any material
(metal, wood, ceramic, plastics, etc.), and
offer the advantage of
being odorless, non-irritant, and leaving no trace.
Instant adhesives are used in particular
in high added value niche applications
in the electronics markets,
with their many applications such as
automotive or communication,
as well as in optical and medical device markets.
They are enjoying strong growth
thanks to the surge in the use of electronics
in all aspects of everyday life.
With this targeted acquisition, Bostik will expand
its existing range of assembly adhesives,
while also speeding up the development
of its offering for the durable goods markets.
This acquisition confirms Arkema’s commitment
to continue the expansion of its adhesives business,
one of the major drivers of its long-term growth.
