About Permacol
From technical bonding challenge to proven solution
An adhesive that seems suitable on paper doesn’t always perform well in your production process. Materials can react differently than expected. Curing may take too long, or the bond may not hold under harsh conditions. In that case, you need more than a supplier. You’re looking for a specialist who understands your challenge and investigates what works in practice.
More than 50 years of adhesive expertise
Since 1974, we have been helping companies with industrial adhesives and casting resins. We take a close look at your application and how you process the adhesive. The material’s properties also play an important role. Sometimes an existing product fits, but in other cases your situation calls for an adjustment or a new development. So you won’t get standard advice from us, but a solution that truly fits your project.
Research in our own laboratory
In our laboratory, we examine how an adhesive behaves. For example, we test adhesion and assess curing. We also map out how strong the bond is. This gives you a better idea in advance of what to expect from an adhesive and reduces the risk of issues during production. We look beyond just the product. Temperature and load affect the bond—as do moisture and the method of application.
Continuous improvement
The requirements for industrial adhesives are changing. That’s why we continuously further develop our products and packaging. We look for safer alternatives and make applications more efficient. We also work on solutions that meet the demands of tomorrow.
A partner who keeps thinking along
A good adhesive solution often remains part of your process for many years. Then you want to be able to rely on consistent quality and technical support from professionals who help you move forward. Put your challenge to us. Together, we’ll arrive at a solution that works.
Developments of products and applications
Constantly, the adhesives industry is on the move, with the keywords sustainability and circularity. Permacol insist on lowering waste e.g. by reducing packaging and the use of alternative packaging. Supply of the right packaging for its purpose will help using the adhesives effectively.
The composition of the adhesives undergo constant attention; Permacol develops adhesives with less safety labels and solvents. Besides that, the end of the Life Cycle is important; how to deassemble, and what about (bio) degradability, in fact releasable adhesives.
