Social Responsibility at a Glance

The absorbent hygiene industry continues to prioritise becoming more socially responsible—as does Bostik. That’s why we’ve made social responsibility one of the four main elements in our Connected Product Line. We have evaluated our many adhesive offerings to see how they can facilitate your creation of more sustainable products. But we didn’t stop there. We also considered how they can help you achieve more responsible operations. The adhesive attributes we’ve identified include:

• Raw materials that have been monitored for substances of interest in accordance with our participation in EDANA working groups 
• Meets product regulatory requirements for an adhesive supporting you in the certification of your product
• Enables the use of renewable or more sustainable substrates
• Facilitates a reduction in the material weight of the product through adhesive add-on reduction
• Formulated with renewable raw materials, enabling a reduced carbon footprint from the use of the adhesive
• Contributes to a more sustainable end of life for the hygiene product

Over the course of producing, using, and disposing of millions of absorbent articles, each incremental improvement in sustainability adds up. Adhesives can also enable improved profitability, consumer confidence, and operational efficiency. Savvy absorbent hygiene producers like you keep all four areas of impact in mind. This allows you to make responsible decisions regarding adhesive selection for your products.
