ISKU has recently implemented Kiilto’s new bio-based veneering adhesive into our production process. This not only amplifies our manufacturing efficiency but also reinforces our commitment to sustainable practices. By embracing this innovative, non-staining adhesive, we are advancing our mission to minimize environmental impact while upholding the highest standards of product quality.

Jukka Jokela, Kiilto’s RDI Manager, emphasizes the adhesive’s innovation, stating, “By optimizing absorption and penetration while reducing formaldehyde content, we’ve created a solution that offers both performance and sustainability benefits.”

This collaboration between ISKU and Kiilto, both rooted in family-owned traditions, signifies a step forward in the furniture industry’s sustainability efforts, showcasing the potential of eco-friendly alternatives in furniture production.

Benefits of the new bio-based adhesive:

  • No discoloration
  • Remarkable speed
  • Ultra-low formaldehyde
  • pH-neutral

Antti Koljonen, ISKU’s Purchasing and Steering Manager, attests to the adhesive’s efficacy, stating, “Since we switched to the new Kiilto adhesive, not a single quality deviation has been reported in production due to discoloured veneer. The cost efficiency of the production process has increased a great deal with the new adhesive.”
