Yamato

Founded in 1899, Yamato is a long-established Japanese adhesive manufacturer known for shaping everyday glue use in Japan. It is best known for its starch-based paste glue, widely used in schools and crafts for its non-toxic and easy-to-use formula. The iconic yellow tube glue is closely associated with childhood and creativity in Japan. In 1975, Yamato introduced liquid glue with a sponge-tip applicator, improving precision and convenience for office use. Today, the brand continues to develop practical adhesive solutions, including tape-style and removable glues designed for modern stationery and creative work.
