Jowat

The Jowat Corp. was established in 1979 as a subsidiary of Jowat SE (established in 1919). The company manufactures adhesives used in industrial applications, including wood and furniture, paper and packaging, construction, structural wood, upholstery, mattress and foam converting, graphics and bookbinding, automotive, textile, and assembly. In September 2017, Jowat SE announced it was building a new and future-oriented innovation and application center at the company's headquarters in Detmold, Germany. The new House of Technology will serve as a meeting point and offer a tangible experience of bonding technology for customers and partners. It will feature showrooms, labs, and training space, as well as state-of-the-art industrial equipment for tests and demonstrations. In October 2017, a new subsidiary was opened in Vietnam with the objective to provide the optimum service for customers and efficient adhesives supply. The newly established company in Ho Chi Minh City reportedly came in response to the rapidly evolving markets in Asia-Pacific and to the continuously growing demand for Jowat adhesives in the region.
