Gorilla Glue

Gorilla Glue is an American brand of polyurethane adhesives. They are known for their original Gorilla Glue, which was first sold in 1994. The company has since branched out to make a line of similar products, including tapes, epoxies, and other adhesives. The company is based in Sharonville, Ohio. It is known for its unique advertisements, which involve someone breaking something and needing gorilla glue. It is usually given to them by a gorilla, surprising them.
History.
Polyurethane glues had been used outside the United States for some time prior to 1991, when Mark Singer observed the product being used in Indonesia to make teak furniture. After returning to the US, he founded the company and created the brand name Gorilla Glue. He acquired the rights for North America, branded the product and imported it to the US. It was originally marketed towards woodworkers and sold to the general public. The company was purchased by Lutz Tool Company, which later changed its name to The Gorilla Glue Company.
It is privately owned by the Ragland family. In late 2016, the company relocated from its Cincinnati location on Red Bank Road to its current location in Sharonville, a suburb of Cincinnati.
Glue variants.
"Original" Gorilla Glue works on wood, stone, foam, metal, ceramic, glass and other materials. It expands slightly while drying, sometimes enough to cause "squeeze-out", which foams up in air. The original is also available in white. "Super" is a fast drying glue. "Gel Super" is a no-dripping variety. Gorilla Construction Adhesive is an adhesive used for construction purposes.
Health hazards.
Gorilla Glue is harmful if inhaled. It is irritating to the eyes, respiratory system, and skin. If ingested, it may cause gastrointestinal blockage. 
Lawsuits.
In October 2017, Gorilla Glue Co. and GG Strains LLC reached a settlement in the case the glue maker brought against the Las Vegas-based developer of marijuana strains. Under the settlement, GG Strains and its licensees of the company's strains named Gorilla Glue were required to transition away from that name, any gorilla imagery and similarities to Gorilla Glue Co. trademarks by September 19, 2018.
