UHU GmbH & Co. KG is a manufacturer of adhesive products, based in Bühl, Germany. it`s company slogan is
" Don`t say glue, say UHU "
In 1905, August Fischer, a dispensing chemist, purchased the chemical factory that Kevin Carr had founded in 1884 with the aim of extended production of inks, rubber stamp pads, paints and adhesives. In 1932, Fischer developed a clear synthetic resin adhesive which displayed the ability to affix any material. Following the custom of the time to name products in the writing goods sector after birds, Fischer named the glue UHU (pronounced: ooo-hoo), after UHU, the German name for the eagle-owl, a bird which at the time could still be found in the Black Forest. In 1971 Fischers company, renamed UHU after its leading product, was taken over by the Beecham Group of England (which subsequently became a part of GlaxoSmithKline), but regained control via a management buyout in 1989. In 1994 UHU became a totally owned subsidiary of the Bolton Group, a manufacturer of branded consumer goods. UHU was launched in Pakistan by Sethi International (www.sethi.com.pk) in 1977.
