Henkel India launches Bonderite duaLCys process

Henkel Adhesives Technologies India Private Limited (Henkel India), a fully owned subsidiary of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA and the leading solution provider for adhesives, sealants and functional coatings, has introduced Bonderite duaLCys process, which exploits lubricant-cleaner synergies to reduce costs, boost performance, save energy, lower waste generation, and improve working conditions.

“It reduces costs by over 40% by using an innovative process that leverages the synergies between the lubricant and the cleaning fluid. In the Bonderite duaLCys process, the in-process cleaner is recycled into the lubrication bath, rather than being discarded as waste,” says Barun Bharadwaj, Business Director - Transport & Metal, Henkel India.

Henkel Adhesive Technologies is present across the metalworking value chain leveraging its strength in cleaners to complement the company’s presence in water miscible lubricants. The new Bonderite duaLCys system requires less water, helps to minimize waste, and saves energy by allowing the washer bath to operate at a reduced temperature. In addition to delivering low reject rates and high surface quality, Bonderite duaLCys also offers improved working conditions resulting from the use of safer, more predictable solutions.
