Mass timber construction, based on wood from sustainably managed forests, is one of the ways for the building industry to improve its overall environmental footprint. It avoids the higher level of CO2 emissions associated with high-energy consuming production of conventional cement, bricks, and steel without compromising strength, safety, or durability.
Timber construction relies on Henkel Engineered Wood adhesives to transform wood into enduring panels, beams, and other building materials with superior performance and properties.
As the leading supplier of formaldehyde-free adhesives for the mass timber industry, Henkel is paving the way for further reduction of CO2 emissions across the entire value chain. Our latest product innovations aim to shift from fossil-based formulations to those made with bio-based materials. They help to improve the environmental footprint while adding value to mass timber end products.
