Did you know that a basic women’s shoe uses roughly eight to ten different adhesives? 👠 At first glance, shoes don’t seem complicated. The average sneaker doesn’t have gears or electronics — it doesn’t have to hold boiling water, withstand flight, or keep a building from falling over. However, a closer look at how shoes are made reveals an incredibly complex product. The shoes that keep us comfortable, dry, and stylish are made possible through a dizzying array of technologies. In our latest blog, we cover footwear applications for adhesives and sealants, adhesive solutions for footwear challenges, and how footwear manufacturers can thrive in this ever-changing, demanding industry. If you are curious about the number of adhesives used on firefighting boots👩🏽🚒 you should read our blog here: https://ow.ly/4QAP50UU7CX #hbfuller #gluetalkblog #footwear #engineeringadhesives

One of our favorite things to highlight is H.B. Fuller’s Make a Difference projects around the world! Our employees in Nairobi, Kenya, assisted the St. Dorcas Education Center in remodeling the boys’ dormitory. The children’s premises had an expired lease, so they had to evacuate before the end of 2024. They lived in a cold environment without proper hygiene conditions, so help was needed! The St. Dorcas Education Center plays a large role in providing food, water, clothing, and shelter to the Kaibiria community. Through the power of collaboration, H.B. Fuller Kenya donated: • A 5,000-liter tank for water storage, improving sanitization and the children’s hygiene routine • Four fire extinguishers, a fire blanket, and firefighting training, advancing their safety skills • A fun-filled afternoon that included music, dancing, games, delicious snacks, nurturing, and mentoring that left a lasting impact on 75 people and warmed the hearts of our dear employees. With our global workforce, small acts of kindness can add up to make big differences around the world. 💙 #makeadifferenceday #hbfullercares #volunteerism
