From Formalin to Finished Good

The biggest category of products that come from formalin are wood and industrial resins. This includes urea formalin, phenol formalin, and melamine formalin binders and adhesives, which are used in many ways. For example:

• Making engineered wood products like plywood, particleboard, and fiberboard
• Creating industrial items such as abrasives, foam insulation, and molded parts
• Coatings for cars
• Durable consumer goods

Hexion is a big player in the global formalin market, and we use a lot of it ourselves to make these resins.
