Permabond Double Bubble fast cure epoxy

Permabond Double Bubble is a specialized industrial-grade fast-cure epoxy adhesive produced by Permabond Engineering Adhesives. The brand's history dates back to the early 1960s in the United Kingdom, where chemists at Borden Chemicals originally developed anaerobic adhesive technology. The business was later sold to Avdel Ltd and moved to Eastleigh, UK. In the United States, a separate lineage involving Pearl Chemical (founded in Florida) contributed to the development of cyanoacrylate adhesives.

In 2003, the Permabond business was acquired by the Grossi family, who have been active in the structural adhesives industry since the 1970s. Today, the brand is owned and operated by Permabond Engineering Adhesives Ltd (Europe & Asia) and Permabond LLC (Americas). Manufacturing occurs primarily at high-tech ISO 9001 certified facilities in the United Kingdom and Italy, with additional R&D hubs such as the Blue Center Innovation Technologies near Milan. The product is marketed primarily toward industrial and engineering sectors rather than general consumers.
