\u00a9 Henkel North America<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Dow (NYSE: DOW), Henkel Adhesive Technologies, and Kraton Corporation, have achieved a reduction in product carbon footprint for two of Henkel\u2019s North American flagship products for end-of-line packaging: TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 100 and TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 106M.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 100 LE and TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 106M LE formulas designed biobased alternatives reduce the adhesives\u2019 cradle-to-gate carbon footprint by 25% compared to the legacy products. This reduced footprint is enabled by a proprietary formulation of Kraton\u2019s SYLVALITE\u2122 2200 biobased tackifiers developed with REvolution\u2122 rosin ester technology and Dow\u2019s AFFINITY\u2122 GA polyolefin elastomers. The lower emission formulations maintain equivalent performance and food safe properties customers expect from the legacy designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cAt Kraton, we understand the importance of sustainability in today’s adhesive and packaging markets,\u201d said Minco van Breevoort, Kraton Pine Chemicals President<\/strong>. \u201cSupplying Henkel with our REvolution\u2122 technology and biobased tackifiers reflects our long-standing dedication to innovating solutions that satisfy customer needs and reduce environmental impact. We take pride in driving the transition towards sustainable adhesive and packaging solutions.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable products often carry a premium price due to higher manufacturing costs and increased regulatory pressure for Scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions reporting. By investing in lower carbon emission formulations, Henkel, Kraton and Dow are meeting consumer demand for sustainable packaging and making these solutions more attainable for consumer goods manufacturers. As a result of the combined investment, TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 100 LE and TECHNOMELT\u00ae SUPRA 106M LE will be available to existing customers at no additional cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cHenkel has been leading the efforts on sustainable solutions which promote emission reduction, circularity and safety. Sustainability is not just our responsibility to future generations but integral to our long-term success as a company,\u201d explains Ulla H\u00fcppe, Head of Sustainability for Adhesive Technologies at Henkel.<\/strong> \u201cBy working with Kraton and Dow, we are able to offer lower emission solutions and establish new industry precedence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe believe in the power of collaboration with like-minded companies who share Dow\u2019s values and ambition. With Henkel and Kraton, we\u2019re not just forging collaborations, we\u2019re creating a sustainable ecosystem. We\u2019re proud to be setting a precedent of working together with other Press Information industry leaders to drive change and bring value to customers,\u201d said Haley Lowry, Global Director Sustainability, Dow<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
