Ponal Express Wood Glue

Ponal is a premier brand of wood adhesive that has become a staple for both professional carpenters and DIY enthusiasts across Europe. The brand was officially launched in 1959 by the German chemical and consumer goods giant Henkel, headquartered in Düsseldorf. Ponal Express, specifically noted for its quick 5-minute drying time, was introduced in 1977 as an innovation to meet the demands of faster workflow in woodworking.

Today, Ponal remains a core part of Henkel's 'Adhesive Technologies' division. While the brand originated and is heavily produced in Germany, Henkel's global manufacturing footprint means production occurs across various international facilities to serve different markets. The brand is synonymous with high-quality 'white glue' (PVAc) and continues to lead the market under the ultimate ownership of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, which remains a German-headquartered multinational with a legacy dating back to 1876.
