BioBond Introduces BioAdhere SUP250 Industrial Adhesive: A high performance, durable, USDA Biopreferred certified adhesive for metal to metal, glass to glass, metal to glass bonding to replace traditional methods of attachment
LAFAYETTE, Ind., Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BioBond Adhesives, Inc. ("BioBond"), a leader in innovative biobased adhesives and coatings, today announced the launch of BioAdhere™ SUP250, an advanced, high-performance adhesive engineered from plant based materials. Designed specifically for demanding mobility and defense applications, the BioAdhere SUP250 delivers a lighter-weight yet durable and long-lasting bonding solution.
BioBond is positioning the BioAdhere™ SUP250 as a superior, safer and healthier alternative to traditional industrial glues. This product is safer for industrial use, boasting practically no VOCs or odors, has no microplastic added, and is completely PFAS (forever chemical) free. As a USDA BioPreferred certified product and Made In The USA, the BioAdhere SUP250 is accelerating the industry's transition toward high-performance, sustainable materials.
The BioAdhere™ SUP250 is the latest addition to our rapidly expanding line-up of BioBond adhesive products that are fundamentally free of odors, microplastics, and PFAS chemicals," said Greg Piche, Vice President of Products at BioBond. The defense and mobility markets, including emerging form factors like drones, demand materials that allow for lighter structures, longer flight times, and extreme durability in harsh environments. BioBond's new adhesive meets this challenge head-on.
"We are introducing a true game-changer that will have an immediate and significant impact on the industry," added Marc McConnaughey, BioBond's CEO. "The BioAdhere SUP250 offers excellent performance and highly competitive pricing, enabling high-performance adhesives to now replace traditional attachment methods such as fasteners, screws, and welding."
Dr. Richard Hart, BioBond's Chief Technology Officer, highlighted the company's dual commitment to sustainability and superior performance. "Developing high-performing, cost-effective, and sustainable biobased products that are also safer and healthier is inherently challenging. BioBond's Industrial Adhesive is a high-performance, two-part urethane adhesive developed in our Santa Ana Technology Labs."
Dr. Hart continued, "This launch demonstrates that superior performance and competitive pricing do not have to come at the expense of using plant-based materials, or compromising safety, health, and the environment."
