High-Quality Case and Carton Adhesives Suitable for a Variety of Applications and Capable of Binding on Different Substrates

The packaging industry is one of the largest consumers of industrial adhesives. Everything from car parts to frozen food comes in a package. Whatever the product, manufacturers need the right adhesives for their packaging materials.

Plastic Packaging – Bond strength is usually the most important consideration and UV curable adhesives are suitable for a range of plastic packaging. Epoxy-based adhesives provide more flexibility. Pressure sensitive hot melts are also used to bond plastic materials.

Paper Packaging – Water-based, solvent based and hot melts are the most suitable adhesives for use in paper packaging such as corrugated boxes, paperboard and paper bags.

Foam Packaging – For foam with smooth surfaces pressure-sensitive adhesives are preferable. They have a long open time, strong peel and shear characteristics. For corrugated foam surfaces hot melt adhesives are best because of their heat stability, wet tack and long open time.

Aluminium Packaging – Aluminium used for packaging such as soft-drink cans allows adhesives to retain all of their bond strength. Epoxy-based adhesives are able to withstand exposure to acids, solvents and bases. The incredibly strong bond created by polyurethane reactive hot melts make them a good adhesive for aluminium packaging.

Whether sticking labels or inserting products in a case or carton, the packaging adhesives ensure items are packed safely and securely until they arrive at their destination.
