Conagen Develops Debondable Adhesives Using Fermentation Technology and Bio-Based Ingredients

Conagen announced the development of a debondable textile adhesive made from high-performance materials sourced from sustainable and natural biomolecules. The adhesive increases efficiency in fabric reworking in manufacturing and recycling on a mass scale, reducing the 92 million tons of textile waste currently ending in landfills yearly. 

Conagen's debondable adhesive allows for quick correction of errors without the need to discard and waste valuable materials. The fabric components can be seamlessly reworked, resulting in improved production efficiency, reduced material waste, and significant cost savings for manufacturers.
