Building elements are subject to strict quality and safety requirements. Jowat SE, a leading manufacturer of adhesives for industrial applications, has officially received the trusted KOMO certificate for several products.
This quality mark confirms that the certified adhesives comply with the technical specifications and internal quality assurance requirements under the Dutch assessment system.
The adhesive Jowapur® 686.20 has already been certified for bonding load-bearing timber parts in line with directive BRL 2338 “Adhesives for load-bearing wood constructions” (Certificate number 33213) for several years. Now, the range of KOMO-certified products has been expanded with Jowapur® 685.59/61 and Jowacoll® 102.27, approved for nonstructural applications in accordance with BRL 2339 “Adhesives for non–load bearing applications (Certificate number 33458).”
The portfolio is further strengthened by the PUR hot melt adhesives Jowatherm® PUR 609.00, 609.30, 609.50 and 609.60, which are listed under SKH quality declaration (SKH-064) which confirms that the production process, quality system and formulations have been tested according to BRL 2339 and pass these requirements. This means the adhesives can be labeled with the SKH quality logo and be used following preliminary appropriate testing by the manufacturer of the bonded parts.
Jowatherm® PUR 609.00, for example, has become a trusted and reliable high-performance adhesive solution for demanding lamination processes in the production of doors. The high initial strength of the product facilitates the reliable bonding of materials with high restoring forces — from the usual laminates and veneers to metal.
“We are delighted with the successful certification of our products,” says Ingo Horsthemke, vice president responsible for global marketing at Jowat SE. “This recognition is further evidence of the high quality of our adhesives and reflects our commitment to delivering verified safety and reliability. For our partners in the construction sector, the KOMO certificate provides convenience and confidence—not just in the Netherlands, but across borders. Since its introduction, the KOMO certificate has earned international recognition.”
The new certifications reaffirm Jowat’s dedication to quality, safety and customer satisfaction while also strengthening the company’s position in the European construction industry.
