Araldite Adhesive

Araldite is one of the most recognized names in the world of high-performance adhesives, specifically known for its structural epoxy resins. The brand's history dates back to 1946 when it was developed by Ciba (now part of the legacy of Ciba-Geigy) in Switzerland. It gained global fame for its exceptional bonding strength, famously demonstrated in marketing campaigns where it was shown to lift entire vehicles.

Today, Araldite is a global brand with a manufacturing footprint that spans multiple regions, including production facilities in the United States, Europe, and Asia. It is widely used in both consumer household applications and demanding industrial sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and wind energy. The ownership of the brand has transitioned through major chemical industry shifts, moving from Ciba-Geigy to Vantico, and eventually being acquired by Huntsman Corporation. Based in Texas, USA, Huntsman continues to lead the development of Araldite under its Advanced Materials division, ensuring its position as a staple in structural bonding technology.
