Henkel, a global leader in adhesives, sealants and functional coatings, and Sasol, a global leader in Fischer-Tropsch technology, have announced a strategic partnership focused on reducing the environmental impact of hot melt adhesives. Through the integration of Sasol\u2019s newly developed SASOLWAX LC product range into Henkel\u2019s TECHNOMELT\u00ae<\/sup> portfolio for the European, Indian, Middle Eastern and African markets, Henkel is delivering advanced adhesive solutions with a reduced carbon emission impact, for consumer goods packaging manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SASOLWAX LC100, produced via Sasol\u2019s enhanced Fischer-Tropsch process, delivers a 35 percent reduction in Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) cradle-to-gate compared to proven baseline formulas without compromising on performance. As a drop-in replacement in Henkel\u2019s legacy formulations, it enables seamless adoption across production lines while aligning with Henkel\u2019s ambition to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions by 30 percent by 2030 (base year 2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership reflects both companies’ alignment with the Science Based Target initiative and commitment to credible sustainability practices. The PCF methodology applied to entire SASOLWAX value chain is rigorously developed and independently reviewed to comply with ISO 14040, 14044, and 14067 standards, ensuring transparency and trust in environmental claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis partnership exemplifies how innovation in material science can enable measurable benefits for our customers,\u201d said Corbett Wallace<\/strong>, Corporate Vice President, Consumer Goods, Henkel Adhesive Technologies. \u201cAs demand grows for more sustainable consumer goods, our collaboration with Sasol allows brands to achieve their environmental goals without trade-offs in quality or performance. Together, we are enabling smarter, more responsible choices across the value chain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are proud to join forces with Henkel in this strategic partnership, marking a key milestone on our aligned path to a more sustainable future,\u201d said David Mokomela<\/strong>, Senior Vice President Chemicals Marketing & Sales at Sasol. \u201cThe SASOLWAX LC range, with 35 percent PCF reduction, is only the first step in a broader roadmap toward further significant reductions. As our products are designed as drop-in alternatives, the market can quickly benefit from the next steps in carbon footprint reduction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
