LD Davis Animal Glue Keeps us Stuck Together!

If you read our last blog about LD Davis company meetings, you know we strive as a company to effectively collaborate to produce the best possible animal glue and provide the best possible customer service to our customers. That being said, this blog comes to you today from our animal glue, or protein adhesive, manufacturing plant in Monroe, North Carolina where we are gearing up for our company meeting to discuss how we can be the best possible animal glue supplier for our customers.

Hide Glue History

Hide glue is important to us at LD Davis, because we know that it is important to you.  We have been America’s premier and largest hide glue manufacturer for decades.  Our company was founded in 1926, and has changed with the times over the past eight decades, but one factor has always stayed the same- quality hide glue from our manufacturing plant to your application. LD Davis hide glue is useful for a variety of applications and is also referred to as animal glue, cake glue, and protein adhesive.  Some common uses include use as book binding adhesive, set-up box production, and many more.  Hide glue is considered an eco-adhesive because it is totally non-toxic and recyclable.  Once it is recycled back into the natural environment, it will begin to break down in a matter of weeks.

The Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure starts tomorrow in Philadelphia. Our Social Media Manager, the second LD Davis Industries employee to walk in the 3-Day, begins her 60-mile trek across the Philadelphia area to help find a way to end breast cancer. With support from LD Davis Industries, North America’s premier book binding adhesive manufacturer and one of the largest hide glue suppliers, she has been training and fundraising to meet the $2,300 fundraising goal to walk in the 3-Day. In fact, she has surpassed the $2,300 minimum. For the past two years, our CFO, Michael Free, walked in the 3-Day with support from the book binding adhesive company. This support has extended to this year’s LD Davis Industries 3-Day walker.
