A wide range of adhesives has been developed to meet all marked needs.

Constant research and development is directed to extend product applications.

The adhesive are generally classified in terms of performance.

• General purpose: for snack food and confectionery
• Medium performance: for coffee pouches, liquid soaps, cosmetics, sauces and condiments,
• Laminates with moderate thermal treatments
• High performance: for retort applications, hot fill/boil-in-bag, etc.
• Industrial lamination: sail cloth, insulation laminates, cable wrap, metal laminates 

Solvent based adhesives

Laminates made with solvent-based adhesives covering the widest range of applications, from

general purpose to high performance.

Main advantages are strong initial tack and final bond strength with good flexibility, and good

optical properties.

• Good machinability
• Large range of applications
• Strong green tack enables fast onward processing
• Use of traditional equipment
• Well established technology 

Solvent free adhesives

Solvent free adhesives have been formulated to remove the environmental impact of solvent

emissions, and to reduce costs.

The first formulations were sufficient only for general purpose applications, but new systems have

evolved which are now able to cover a more extended range of applications.

Machine and films suppliers have made a big contribution to the use of solvent free adhesives

in terms of both performance and application.

• High machine speeds
• Cost-efficient
• No solvent retention
• No pollution
• Reduced equipment cost
