Our goal is to offer our customers individual and efficient adhesive solutions through the use of premium products – all around the world. By consistently pursuing our triad strategy, Jowat has recently grown by two new subsidiaries: our new sites in Vietnam and Thailand are now members of our big, international family. But even though our journey on the path to growth has taken us far, there is no place for us like home: the House of Technology is a strong commitment to the Detmold site, where the many threads of our work come together. With the staging of the 17th Jowat Symposium, the new technical centre will celebrate its premiere as an innovation and application centre all about bonding. Speaking of celebrating: in 2019, Jowat will celebrate its 100th anniver- sary. As a family business, we are proud of our development thus far, the traditions and values that we uphold and represent. And although our successful company history shapes and defines our daily work, we stay focused on the future. That’s why we prospectively promote and support several research projects. From lightweight construction in the automotive industry to the in- novative use of oil palm wood, we support the work of institutions in a variety of ways and, in doing so, always aim at conserving natural resources and reducing harmful emissions. Jowat is ready for the future and embraces it with open arms, whilst you, as our customer, remain at the focus of everything we do. »We are The Jowat customer magazine is no exception to our high quality stand- ards.

Boasting 18 plants across eight countries, the enterprise is also fi rmly on course for international success. The EGGER range comprises a variety of panelling materials, which rely on Jowat adhesives more than any other product as part of their further refi nement pro- cess. This has resulted in a close partnership between the two companies, which allows them to not only look back on a shared success story, but also to look forward to an exciting future ahead. 4 Ansgar Wolf and Rüdiger Ernst are carefully lamination of fi breboard are integral aspects examining a freshly coated HDF panel that of the day-to-day work here, and Jowat’s prod- has just been taken from the coating plant. ucts and comprehensive range of services can After looking at it from all sides and from every be seen everywhere you look. angle, they are clearly satisfi ed with the result: the fi lm coating has been applied fl awlessly Wolf is Head of Product Development and the adhesive works perfectly.

This close cooperation was a matter of course for both parties, with neither ever faltering from their focus on the end result – the finished product. “And this is why we are all happy to pull out all the stops,” reiterat- ed Ansgar Wolf. Another of EGGER’s special requirements for Jowat was to manufacture both a designer floor and a cork floor on the same system using the same adhesive. It was the materials that presented a challenge in this case, as they required different bonding processes. Ultimately, however, the collabo- rative research resulted in an ideal, workable solution. “We are also constantly optimising our processes in coating,” added Ansgar Wolf. “And, with the most innovative adhesives, that’s no problem.” The relationship between EGGER and Jowat is characterised by a high level of trust.

Coconut shell craft 6.2. Coconut Wood Craft 7. Uses of the Product 8. Miscellaneous 8.1. Primary market 8.2. Changes in the craft 9. References 1. Introduction The craft of making decorative and utility products out of coconut shell and wood is mostly practiced in parts of India where coconut is grown in abundance. However in most of these areas coconut wood was or is still used as firewood and/or building material. Coconut shell has always been used as a cooking fuel and to make small multiple-utility bowls or serving spoons with simple bamboo joinery. However with the passage of time and the improvement in tools, people started making various other small utility and decorative articles by cutting coconut shell or by carving coconut wood. 2. Regions of Production Coconut shell and wood craft is primarily prevalent in Kerala: in and around Calicut, Trivandrum, Attingal, Neyyatinkara and Quilandy in Kozhikode. Other states where this craft is practiced are Goa, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and a few parts of Bengal, Pondicherry and Tamil Nadu. Another instance of availability of coconut shell craft is in the tribal belt of Bastar where intricately designed patterns in white metal are inlayed in the shell and cut to make bangles This craft is also prevalent in other countries such as Cambodia, Thailand, the Philippines, Java, Maldives and Sri Lanka.

  • Business Ideas for Manufacturing of Adhesive (Fevicol Type). Profit
    Y-1760 www.entrepreneurindia.co www.niir.org INTRODUCTION Adhesives are a broad term that refers to any substance that can be used to keep, fasten, or bind two or more materials or objects (i.e. substrates) together when placed between their surfaces. The adhesion (i.e., bond strength) created between substrates by the adhesive is largely determined by the adhesive's properties- specifically, its adhesion and cohesion. www.entrepreneurindia.co www.niir.org Due to the fact that these properties are the primary mechanisms underlying adhesives, measuring the failure point of both properties for each adhesive available aids in determining the best adhesive for use in a given application based on the technical requirements and specifications. www.entrepreneurindia.co www.niir.org Adhesives are commonly used in a number of residential, commercial, and industrial applications for permanent, semi- permanent, and temporary attachment purposes. Load carrying ability, chemical composition, reactivity or inertness, and shape are some of the characteristics that can be used to classify and categorise the wide variety of adhesives available. www.entrepreneurindia.co www.niir.org Each of these adhesives has unique properties and benefits, however, as with adhesive and cohesive strengths, the suitability of each property or feature (and the corresponding adhesive) is determined by the application. www.entrepreneurindia.co www.niir.org COMMON TYPES OF ADHESIVES Anaerobic Adhesives: Acrylic-based adhesives that cure in the absence of air are known as anaerobic adhesives. The curing process is accelerated when metal is present. This type of adhesive usually has a low viscosity, comes in liquid and paste forms, and is used to secure, seal, and preserve close-fitting and structural parts.
