Bostik

As we reflect on an incredible year, Bostik is proud to highlight the launch of two game-changing products in September: FastGlue Ultra+ and Kizen™ Lime.🔥   🔗 FastGlue Ultra+ is the first-ever repair adhesive with 60% bio-based ingredients. Exceptionally powerful and better for both people and the planet, thanks to the power of castor oil. 📦 Kizen™ Lime, developed in partnership with Dow and Nordson Corporation, is an eco-friendly, high-performance adhesive for cardboard packaging. It delivers strong, sustainable closures while supporting Arkema’s Net Zero goals by reducing dependence on fossil resources, incorporating over 80% renewable materials. This year, Bostik has pushed boundaries, delivering innovative, sustainable solutions that exceed customer needs. As we look to 2025, we’re excited for the continued success of these game-changing products! 🌱 #Bostik #AttachedToYourWorld #WeAreSustainabilityEnablers

Reflecting on summer 2024, a season of passion, sport, and strong partnerships for Bostik, with two key events that truly showcase our commitment to the world of sports! ✨  🔥 In July, the 2024 Games flame passed through Venette, one of our key R&D centers, and we were honored to be part of this symbolic event. A true symbol of unity and sporting spirit.  🚴🏼♀️In August, we continued our support for women’s sports by renewing our partnership with the Tour de France Féminin (#TDFF). This collaboration strengthens our commitment to equality and amplifies the visibility of female athletes. At Bostik, we believe in the positive impact of sports, and we are proud to support initiatives and competitions that highlight women's sports and athletes, taking one step closer to a more inclusive and inspiring future for all. #Bostik #AttachedToYourWorld #AtTheHeartOfSport

🌍 Driving Sustainability Forward at Bostik! 🌱 As part of Arkema, Bostik is on a mission to lead the way in sustainable, circular solutions in the adhesives industry, with an ambitious goal to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050... And we believe that every action makes a difference! At Bostik Stafford, we've downsized our feedwater tank from a massive 35,000 litres to a sleek 6,000-litre model, a change that has resulted in a remarkable reduction of 1M kwh in gas consumption and 200 tonnes less CO2 emissions annually! Small change in size, but HUGE leap in sustainability! 🚀 #WeAreSustainabilityEnablers #AttachedToYourWorld

To carry on with our 2024 retrospective, let's take a look back at May and June.🔥     ⭐ In May, Arkema strengthened its position as a key player in the growing flexible packaging laminating adhesives market with the acquisition of Dow’s business.     This acquisition strengthens Bostik's adhesives segment by combining expertise from both Bostik and Dow's integrated team, enhancing our ability to drive sustainable growth and create new opportunities in the sector.    🎬 In June, we proudly launched our new Bostik brand movie, highlighting how we are #AttachedToYourWorld. The film showcases the presence of our smart adhesives, from industrial manufacturers to construction and DIYers.     "Creating our brand movie showcased how Bostik's innovative adhesives are integrated into daily life. The blue line highlights the widespread impact of our products. #AttachedToYourWorld represents our commitment to connecting people and industries globally. We're proud of the result and hope it resonates with you." - Robert Louer, Head of Global Branding & Communication     A truly exciting chapter in our journey, setting the stage for more growth and innovation ahead! 🎉
