DULUTH, Georgia – November 19, 2025: SIWO US Inc., a research-based manufacturer of advanced waterborne polyurethane dispersions (PUDs), today announced the launch of a new bio-based waterborne polyurethane product line, underlining the company’s commitment to sustainable industrial chemistry and its role in driving a low-carbon future. This new line is engineered to meet demanding industrial and chemical finishing applications while supporting environmental stewardship.

With an established history in the development and manufacturing of waterborne PUDs — dating back to the mid-1990s and supported by independent intellectual property and invention patents — SIWO US has become a trusted supplier for coatings, adhesives, leather, textile, wood, and synthetic-leather markets. The company emphasizes formulations that minimize reliance on solvent-based systems and hazardous processing. As the company states: “We don’t sell solvent-based goods, which are extremely hazardous to the environment and human health.”

The newly launched bio-based line leverages SIWO US’s proprietary waterborne polyurethane technologies, such as hydroxyl-functional, cationic/nonionic and matte dispersions, in which a significant fraction of the raw materials are derived from renewable sources. Building on the capabilities of its existing aqueous polyurethane dispersions (PUDs) that serve markets including leather, textiles, rubber, plastics, wood flooring, metal, graphics, and construction, the bio-based line is positioned to deliver comparable performance qualities—durability, UV resistance, abrasion resistance, solvent resistance—while lowering the carbon footprint of end-use coatings and adhesives.

As part of the launch, SIWO US has emphasized that the new line is fully integrated into its product catalog and will be supported by the company’s global R&D and technical service teams. The company invites formulators, OEMs, and industrial coatings producers to collaborate on tailor-made solutions, leveraging its synthesis team’s ability to customize aqueous polyurethane dispersions to meet specific substrate, aesthetics, and performance requirements. “Our synthesis team can design the ideal product that meets your criteria and the industry standards,” SIWO US notes on its website.

Key markets the new bio-based line will address include wood and decorative industrial coatings, leather and textile finishes, adhesives and packaging inks, and plastics and rubber coatings. SIWO US has long experience in serving these sectors—its website lists applications spanning from one-pack waterborne polyurethane systems for industrial wood and decoration coatings to waterborne polyurethanes for plastics and rubber coatings. By introducing the bio-based line, SIWO US expects customers across these markets to achieve improved sustainability credentials without sacrificing operational performance or finish quality.

“Eco-friendly innovation is embedded in our company’s DNA,” stated the CEO of SIWO US. “The launch of this bio-based waterborne polyurethane line marks a significant step forward in our ambition to enable partners in achieving a low-carbon society. We are proud to offer solutions that support long-term development, human-centric manufacturing, and environmental preservation.”
