Henkel has joined the Additive Manufacturer Green Trade Association (AMGTA) to promote the environmental benefits of additive manufacturing (AM) throughout all stages of the ecosystem. The company says that membership of the company’s Loctite 3D Printing business underlines its commitment to sustainability initiatives and aims to open up discussions on the environmental benefits of additive design and foster the adoption of AM in the future.

The company says it aims to create more value for its stakeholders and to pioneer with innovative solutions for the good of generations. Loctite 3D Printing’s move to join the AMGTA aims to build on this effort within the AM industry.
