Summertime is here. While many of us are looking forward to the warm weather, that extra heat and humidity can mean manufacturing challenges for some. You’ve probably noticed the consistency of your glue change during the warmer months if you’re using protein glue.

Can glue really help to make your production line more profitable? Yes, of course. And we're not just saying that because we're glue fanatics!

At LD Davis, we make it a priority to help our customers run their business as efficiently, and profitably, as possible.
