LOCTITE, producer of adhesives, sealants and functional coatings, celebrates its longstanding sponsorship of Formula Student – an educational engineering competition, run by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
Taking place this July at Silverstone, Formula Student provides students from around the world with the opportunity to develop, build and race a single-seater car, applying their academic knowledge in a practical environment.
The event attracts more than 100 university teams globally, with LOCTITE providing adhesives for use in structural, composite and powertrain components, alongside application advice and engineering support.
This year, several teams have received LOCTITE’s sponsorship, including York and Kingston universities.
“We’re proud to continue supporting Formula Student and helping the next generation of engineers bring their ideas to life,” said George Hickey, market and customer activation manager at Henkel. “This initiative not only showcases exceptional technical talent but also reflects the spirit of innovation and collaboration that drives our industry forward.”
