The Substrate Test results are in, and they confirm that Brightbond® performs as well as commercial glues for cellulosic substrates. 😁 The substrates failed before the glue did, meaning Brightbond® is stronger than the material itself. This highlights just how powerful and durable our 100% biobased adhesive is, even when tested against traditional options. Check out the chart to see the strength of Brightbond® in comparison with PVA when tested on cardboard and paper! 📉 Find out more below. https://lnkd.in/eRZBmTcc

Composting the Future: BEEN London x Treekind® We were proud to partner with BEEN London in their mission to create sustainable accessories. This collaboration began in 2021 with a grant from ReLondon and led to the creation of a fully home-compostable collection using our Treekind® material. 🌱 The collection includes a tote bag and small "leather" goods like a keyring and coin purse — all made from our plastic-free alternative to leather. https://lnkd.in/eisiVDRG #SustainableFashion

A little throwback to some of our early testing on Brightbond®. 💚 Back then, before it even had a name, we knew we'd created something that both people and the planet would LOVE. If you'd like more information, or to purchase Brightbond®, head to the link below. https://lnkd.in/eRZBmTcc

Breaking paper, not bonds 📰 We put our new 100% biobased adhesive to the test and, as you can see, right below where the adhesive ends, the paper snaps! This substrate failure test is a powerful demonstration of the resilience and durability of our 100% biobased adhesive. #SustainableInnovation #StrongBonds #BiobasedMaterials #Biophilica

Ever wondered about the water footprint of traditional leather production? According to Circumfauna.org, it can be as high as 104,670 litres for just one hide! This massive volume of water usage poses significant environmental challenges, particularly as water scarcity becomes an increasingly pressing global issue. In comparison, Treekind® only uses less than 1% of the water used in conventional leather processing. Treekind®, crafted from eco-friendly agricultural and garden waste, offers a sustainable solution. Not only does Treekind® drastically reduce water consumption compared to conventional leather, but it also eliminates the need for plastic, making it a double win for the planet. 🌎 Image credit: Alexandra Diaconu https://lnkd.in/eCRJ93D8 #BeTreekind

After 18 months of development, Brightbond® has arrived — and it looks as good as it performs. 😁 This plant-based adhesive seamlessly blends into designs with a clear, sleek finish.
