Development and production of adhesives and sealants, encapsulation compounds and aerosols for industry.
Kisling AG
Wetzikon (CH) · Niedernhall (DE)New on Amplifa
Bonding + Sealing + Encapsulating since 1862
Kisling is a manufacturer founded in Switzerland of high-quality adhesives and sealants for virtually all industrial sectors, OEM manufacturers and the specialized trade. The product range includes high-strength structural adhesives based on (meth)acrylate and epoxy, No-Mix structural adhesives, anaerobic adhesives, cyanoacrylate instant adhesives, RTV silicones, thermal conductive pastes as well as encapsulation compounds for transparency, flame retardancy and thermal conductivity applications. The entire value chain from formulation through mixing to filling and finishing is united under one roof at the headquarters in Wetzikon (Swiss made); in Niedernhall, Kisling (Deutschland) GmbH produces encapsulation compounds, adhesives and sealants as well as private-label products. Kisling develops application-specific adhesive solutions including laboratory testing, on-site application engineering and process analysis, and processes adhesives and sealants in a process-reliable manner in large series volumes. Target industries include, among others, e-mobility/electric motors, electronics, automotive, fluid technology, lightweight construction/fiber composites and loudspeaker manufacturing. Since 1980, Kisling has been part of the Würth Group.

Product Groups and Materials
Methacrylate (MA/MMA structural adhesive, 2K)
High-strength bonding of metals, ferrites, plastics, ceramics and aluminum under thermal and dynamic loads.
Epoxy resin structural adhesive (2K)
Age-resistant, high-strength bonding of heavily stressed components made of metal, ceramic, ferrite, glass, wood and plastic.
Acrylate No-Mix structural adhesive (2K with activator)
Very fast, high-performance bonding of glass, ceramics and metal.
Anaerobic adhesives
Securing, fastening and sealing of metallic threads, surfaces, flanges and pipe connections.
Cyanoacrylate instant adhesive (1K)
Solvent-free, very fast bonds on metal, plastic, elastomers, wood, stone and ceramics.
RTV silicone (neutral curing)
Permanently elastic bonding and sealing of glass, metal and housing constructions without corrosive by-products.
Modified urethane acrylate
Anaerobic or heat-curing, especially for rotor/stator laminated cores (e.g. 2124, 2206).
Thermal conductive pastes GapFiller
Thermal management between components with differing thermal conductivity requirements.
Encapsulation compounds (transparency, flame retardancy, thermal conductivity)
Protection and electrical insulation of e-motors, electronic components, batteries and LEDs.
Aerosols (paints & rust protection)
Coating of metal surfaces, available in private label only.
Substrates (metal, plastic, elastomers, glass, ceramics, ferrite, neodymium,
Bondable materials from steel and aluminum to fiber composites and magnetic materials.
