Henkel to present sustainable packaging solutions at Labelexpo Europe 2025
Henkel Adhesive Technologies is set to demonstrate its advanced adhesive solutions that comply with the EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and promote sustainable packaging design at Labelexpo Europe 2025. From September 16 to 19, the company will present its pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) and high-performance technologies, focusing on recyclability and carbon dioxide (CO₂) reduction across the value chain. Among these products is Aquence PS 3017 RE, a wash-off PSA for polyethylene terephthalate bottles, and repulpable adhesives for paper labels that fully dissolve during the recycling process. The Henkel Packaging recyclab, part of the Henkel Inspiration Center Düsseldorf, evaluates packaging designs to ensure they meet regulatory standards such as the PPWR and are designed sustainably from the outset. In addition to recyclable adhesives, Henkel is introducing high-performance solutions for CO₂ reduction. These include PSAs for linerless label applications that save material and enhance process efficiency, and UV-curable PSAs known for their energy efficiency and resistance to heat, chemicals, and environmental factors, making them suitable for challenging label and tape applications. Henkel Adhesive Technologies packaging Europe market strategy head Philippe Daval said: 'The coming years will bring fundamental changes for the labelling and packaging industry. Companies aiming to remain competitive must address sustainability, performance and regulation as a whole and work with partners from the industry to overcome the challenges. 'Our adhesive and coating technologies provide the basis for this, all the way from design for recycling to reliable implementation.' Earlier this month, Henkel Adhesive Technologies introduced a new solvent-free adhesive system, Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265, designed for high-performance packaging applications, particularly in retort packaging for pet food.

Celebrating National Soccer Day With Henkel
Happy National Soccer Day! Today, July 28, is recognized across the United States as a celebration of the sport and its players, coaches, and fans. Henkel is an Official Sponsor of U.S. Soccer, and we are proud to celebrate alongside our partners. Henkel and U.S. Soccer share an aim to increase awareness and accessibility of the sport for underserved communities across the country, and both organizations work throughout the year towards achieving this goal. Kicking Off a Brighter Future: Empowering the Next Generations Henkel is a supporting partner of American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) Clinics, which take place in multiple locations across the country throughout the year. Henkel employees will soon hear more about the opportunity to sign up and bring their children along to clinic sessions later this year. All participants will get first-hand experience with the benefits of youth sports, including better overall academic performance, lower stress levels, greater self-confidence, improved cognitive performance, and more creativity. It is important to equip the next generation with the tools they need to excel, and participation in youth sports such as soccer can be a big step in achieving this goal. The work being done to increase access for all young athletes in the world of sports is essential to ensuring a long and successful future of the sport and a next generation that is primed to succeed. Sarah Davis, National Business Manager, Henkel Consumer Brands, and her daughter Kenzie (pictured to the right) attended the U.S. Women's National Team match against Ireland in Cincinatti earlier this summer. Kenzie's dream is to one day play on the USWNT, and was excited to cheer them on to victory while spotting Henkel and its brands' logos around the stadium. Soccer for All: Building Stronger Communities U.S. Soccer also seeks to expand access to the sport and supercharge communities across the country through the Soccer Forward Foundation. The foundation hosts community spotlights and raises funds in pursuit of their mission to take soccer's power and the difference it can make to a whole new level of building healthier and more connected communities. Through their events, grants, and other resources, they aim to make soccer a force for good -- accessible to everyone in the U.S., everywhere in the U.S. Soccer is not only a super accessible activity, but also a source of many life lessons. It provides a basis for learning, encouraging kids to practice critical thinking, self-advocacy, and resiliency in an engaging, safe environment. And I've personally watched them grow from Kristopeit, Director of Sustainability and Climate Impact at Henkel Adhesive Technologies As we celebrate National Soccer Day, we are proud of the work being done through collaboration between Henkel and U.S. Soccer to build strong teams on the pitch and in the workplace.

Henkel launches pilot operations of re-powered electric trucks for commercial logistics
Henkel Adhesive Technologies, in partnership with a logistics firm and an EV retrofitting solutions provider, has launched India's first mid-haul re-powered electric truck operations for commercial logistics . The pilot initiative involves two initial routes: Chennai to Pune (1,321 km) and Pune to Halol (713 km), marking a key step in decarbonising long-distance freight transport. The electric trucks , retrofitted with an all-electric powertrain kit, offer a range of 250 kilometres per charge and support payloads of up to 8 tonnes. Henkel estimates that a single round trip on the Chennai–Pune corridor results in a reduction of around 1,212 kg of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, demonstrating the potential of electric trucking to lower the sector's carbon footprint. The move aligns with Henkel's broader climate strategy, which includes targets to cut at least 90 per cent of absolute emissions across scope 1 and 2, and 90 per cent of scope 3 emissions by 2045. The company said it is focusing on eco-design, low-emission materials, supplier engagement, and carbon-efficient logistics as part of its net-zero roadmap. The pilot represents an early shift away from conventional diesel-powered logistics and signals growing interest in electrification across India's industrial supply chain.

Henkel rolls out solvent-free adhesive system for sustainable packaging
Henkel Adhesive Technologies has introduced a new solvent-free adhesive system, Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265, designed for high-performance packaging applications, particularly in retort packaging for pet food. In addition to pet food packaging, Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265 is applicable for ready meals, microwave products, and pharmaceutical packaging. The company said, this adhesive system prioritises food safety while ensuring reliable processing and contributing to a reduction in CO2 emissions by minimising material usage and eliminating the need for energy-intensive drying processes associated with solvent-based products. Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265 is compatible with PET/Alu/CPP packaging and modern polyolefin structures. With a monomer content of less than 0.1% and no epoxy silane, the adhesive can withstand temperatures up to 134°C. Its lightweight application promotes increased production efficiency, and the absence of a drying step allows for curing at room temperature, further reducing material and energy consumption. The system is designed for safe processing at high machine speeds and under varying conditions, making it suitable for internationally standardised packaging processes. Henkel stated that transitioning to this solvent-free system is straightforward due to its high processing stability and compatibility with existing laminating machinery. Henkel flexible packaging market strategy manager Cagri Turkmen said: 'With Loctite Liofol LA 7837/LA 6265, we are further expanding our high-performance adhesive portfolio for retort applications, offering a solvent-free solution that provides both outstanding performance and increased sustainability. 'Through this innovation, we are enabling our customers to fulfill current market requirements, reduce CO2 emissions and benefit from economic advantages due to higher production efficiency.' In November this year, Henkel partnered with Celanese to create water-based adhesives utilising materials derived from carbon capture.
