Hot melt adhesive is in greater demand now more than ever.  A recent report published on the global hot melt adhesive market says that the market should reach $4.65 billion in the next five years.  Hot melts are in high demand because they are fairly easy to use, form strong bonds, and are useful in a wide variety of applications.

So Here’s the Bad News….

We do not manufacture this new “Gecko” glue that claims to be able to support the weight of a full-grown man as he walks up and down walls.  We manufacture eco-adhesives, such as animal glue, water-based adhesives, and liquid glues.  However, it is such a cool development in the adhesive industry that we felt the need to spread the word and find out what you think about it.

LD Davis has been manufacturing quality animal glues for over nine decades, but animal glue itself has been around for centuries longer.  In fact, up until the mid-20th century, most glue in use was animal glue, dextrin glue, or other glues composed of natural polymers such as starch adhesives.  Products such as hot melt adhesives and resin adhesives are much newer in comparison to animal glue and other natural adhesives; they have only been used widely for about 60 years or so.

Building Life Long Bonds at LD Davis

LD Davis Industries prides itself on “building life long bonds.”  These bonds are built with raw material suppliers so we can make sure we can always supply our customers with the products they need, when they need them.  These bonds are built with customers and create two-way loyalty to maintain lasting business relationships.  These bonds are also built with L.D. Davis staff members; the animal glue manufacturing company values its staff and many employees have been working for LD Davis for 10, 15, or even 20 plus years.  We must be doing something right besides making quality animal glue!
