Research and progress - by tradition
You can only find something truly new if you look for it. That's what we do!
With passion and great commitment, HOBUM invests time and resources in the research and development of innovative and highly efficient products. Our experts in chemistry and technology create bio-based solutions for the products of tomorrow. We accompany them from the initial idea to large-scale production - successfully for more than 65 years.
Customised solutions for people and the environment
We do research for you: Your requirements are the benchmark for our work. We are guided by the principle of sustainability and thus create the framework conditions for your practical progress.
Our customers include large global corporations and, in many cases, small and medium-sized enterprises.
Achieving great things together: Research projects
HOBUM is a favourite partner for research institutions. In co-operation with universities, research institutes and other partners, we pave the way for the future of sustainable chemistry.
Together, we develop ideas for new, bio-based raw materials, products and processes. This includes, for example, the utilisation of innovative bioresources. We are also involved in the research and development of new marketable end products in the following areas:
- Mobility
- Coating
- Adhesives
- Cosmetics
