Titebond Wood Glue

Titebond is a premiere brand of adhesives that has been a staple in the woodworking and construction industries for decades. Originally developed by Franklin International, the brand is widely recognized for its high-performance wood glues, including the Titebond II and Titebond III lines, which were pioneers in providing water resistance and high strength for a variety of wood-to-wood applications.

The manufacturing of Titebond takes place primarily in Columbus, Ohio, at Franklin International’s central production facilities. This centralized manufacturing approach ensures consistent quality control and adherence to strict safety standards, such as those required for FDA-compliant indirect food contact, which is common in kitchen projects like cutting boards.

Ownership of the brand remains private and stable under Franklin International. As a family-owned business with a legacy dating back to 1935, Franklin International has maintained its position as an industry leader without being absorbed by massive global conglomerates. This independence allows the company to focus on specific chemical research for adhesives, sealants, and polymers specifically designed for professional craftsmen and DIY enthusiasts alike.
